The frightening truth is, I'm a nature and wildlife photographer largely because I still enjoy chasing bugs and playing in the water. The camera just gives me an excuse and makes me look less weird to anyone watching... ;-) However, I also find that I'm quite happy with maintaining my own bedtime and not eating my damn vegetables if I don't like them. And let's face it, even setting fire to things doesn't compare with sex. The secret is to recognize what you like, not what you miss. Pass *that* along. And occasionally hit someone with a water balloon, too. - Al. Agreed. I have no desire to go back. Life as a post-collegiate adult is too good. It seems far too easy sometimes. -Kevin |

Of course! - Anyone who says they wouldn't is crazy! - Knowing what I know now....I would get instant rich just from knowing which companies to buy stock in.....for example, I would sell several hundred thousand shares of Enron short when it hit 90....:^) Presto! - Instant millionaire! And boy, I sure would have fun with all those girl friends I missed the first time around.......... |

I was thinking more in terms of knowing how the world works and knowing what's important and what's not and how to read people better, and stuff like that. But, if you want to take it in that direction, you could also know which super bowl and world series teams to bet on before the season ever starts. How many people, in 1991, picked both the Twins and the Braves to win their pennants? -- Whose cruel idea was it to put an 's' in the word lisp? |

om... "William Graham" wrote in message news:coHIc.64009$a24.23501@attbi_s03... "The DaveŠ" wrote in message news Yes......And think of the good you could do for mankind.....Like, you could go back to 1960 and shoot Bill Gates.......... Gates has done far more for mankind than Mother Theresa...that's why he's rich, dumbass... He's done much more _to_ mankind than _for_ mankind. As for Mother Theresa compared to Bill Gates, consider the story of the woman who Jesus held up for her generosity when she gave a single coin to the synagogue. Reason being, it was all she had. Considering this, Mother Theresa is far the more generous of the two, and has done more for mankind than Bill Gates will ever do in terms of role modeling an immense depth of character and sense of humanity for all the world to follow. But then, you're neither deep (leicaflexleicaflexleicaflex) nor humane (dumbass). -- Regards, Matt Clara www.mattclara.com |
