    I think letting groups self-identify is a bunch of politically correct BS when it’s taken too far. The term african american is total hooey and I refuse to use it. People are welcome to use it to identify themselves if they feel it does something for them, and assuming they are factually correct when they say it.

    Says the white guy.

  2. biff,
    there was a page 6 magazine in the Post this
    past week.
    Sean Lennon was inside with his
    girlfriend in a big photo spread.
    It’s scary how much he looks like John.
    There’s a photo of John and Sean,
    Beautiful Boy is a heartbreaker.

    I find a good rule of thumb is that you need to accumulate AT LEAST $700,000 if you want to live on $50,000 a year and be sure of it.

    ugh. being old is gonna suck ass. even tho im sure it will make me miserable, hopefully there will still be hippie communes around where people just barter for what the need and stuff.

    also breeders have it so easy cuz they can easily just pop out a kid and then the kid can take care of you in an emergency.

    what happens to the childless and broke elderly (and dont tell to me ask my grandma!)

    Dona – I was so terrified at not being able to breathe when my appendix exploded – I figured that’s what emphysema would be like. I try to hold onto that image to squelch desire for a smoke. With 3 weeks in the hospital as a start (& having lost 20 lbs so weight gain would be o.k.), it seemed the intelligent thing to do – but I really wouldn’t say I signed on to quit. I did it in the same spirit as going to the d-word: the grown-up, sensible approach.
