Well, Hello K, what a nice surprise... [on the other hand...] this means, I am afraid, I am delving into dangerous threads, as I remember you mingle with some... ahem less than reputable characters... -lol no doubt looming in the background with bazooka ready at the aim and fire upon me, poor, defenseless me. -g

You've got that one pegged. It's a bitch of a choice.

But of course I do...

After a lifetime of attending private catholic schools, with brainy close relatives ranging from socialist political advisors, [who if it was up to them, would have sent me to Cuba for early brain-washing about the "wisdom" of Uncle Fidel ideology]; to undercover, (but de-facto) representatives of the Vatican -ggg [who without hesitation had me attend --at the ripe old age of 6 years old-- a seminar under the pretense and pretext of learning about the guilt ridden preparations for first communion, and indeed force me to perform the deed under a garb not unlike that of Rasputin, the evil monk –I only agreed after being threatened of being withdrawn from the school soccer team] --all in the same family-- I, a pure Laissez Faire Capitalist at heart, learned at an early age to defend myself for survival in a sea filled with sharks from both sides.

As usual, It was my mama who save me and allowed me at age 14 to exercise the freedom of choice --so much denied to many of my mates-- and tell the local priest that I was abandoning the "flock" and although I requested his official acknowledgement of my desire, the bastard took the cheap route and under the pretext that I was a minor --never mind I had my mother's authorization and backing-- declined to issue the document, so I unilaterally told him I was out.

From that day on, I have been free of the influence of gods and demons alike.... [Thank me] -g

Every time I played soccer with the school team and we beat the seminar’s team was immensely rewarding –LOL !! [and they were one of the best teams around too]

Good to read you and Happy New Year...

[And thanks for the warning, unintended as it is, to watch out for the wackos of SI] -ggg
