Hi Ken, > you really have been watching us ... don't you love it how I am still capable of making myself look foolish here ... <g> Actually Ken I just stopped by here and went through some of the posts I thought yours were the most reasonable logical ones (and especially) compare to some others. > ... I will answer you later ... AND how are you? ... I am doing fine (although I have to say I have seen better days before)! One thing I have come to really see in these tough economic times, is that there are definitely some who panic and do anything - and everything - (including back-stabbing, cheating, and above all stepping over others and taking advanatge of the goodness of others at any cost in order for them to either get ahead or to maintain their status quo)... In any event... it is sad to see this... There is this episode of the Twilite Zone where a bunch of neighbors and old time friends are having their weekly party. And then there is an announcement on the radio telling them everyone should hide because there would be nuclear war. Well, the host and his family run to their underground hide out leaving all their friends and members up there. Everyone begs them to let them in also but they refuse panicing there might not be enough food for all of them to stay alive for a long period of time. Then there is a fight among the neighbors and friends as where to go and what to do... Everyone steps over each other to survive. (and these all have been best friends and neighbors for so long). At the end the radio says the nuclear war was a hoax and everything was OK. But the damage had already been done as everyone had shown their true face and inner inside as what they would do and how they would feel toward each other in tough times. It seems we are in such a situation right now where people are in a panic mode, doing anything to just take care of themselves - (even if that means stepping all over the people whom they considered their friends, etc.)... I am not too worried about the stock market or the economy becuase at the end it always comes back bigger and better than before. What I am worried about is the morality that is lost till that time and in between for which that would never come back and a lot of people are going to be hurt in the process. Regards,
