Thank you for agreeing with me on the Politics for Pros board. I would have sent you a private message but I didn't see that option in your profile. I would have answered you on the correct thread but like I said I won't post there again unless the moderator reconsiders.

Yes X,

It is only logical that the parents sets the "example" for their children. When a little babe first opens their eyes the first they see or lock on to is their mom and then their dad. From that moment on, the child is in love with them and wants to emulate their parents, please them.. So the best way to please them is to mimic them,

So if the parents are loving, kind, civil, polite, honest interesting, always curious, etc., loving life in all ways, by learning, whether it is through academics, music, athletics, travel, whatever.. It seems to work..

And of course, the opposite, :(...

Moving onto movies, I watched some of the academy awards last night and was in general agreement about the awards except I have never seen any of the "Lord of Rings" movie series. My loss <g>..

But I have seen "Lost in Translation" and I was a little "lost in translation" as I did not understand all the hullabaloo about it.. It was pleasant enough but I did not see any great artistic piece of work.. It seemed like a middle of the road "Sundance" entry starring a graying lost soul lost in a hotel. Could have been in Elko, <g> having a little more than eye-contact with a young woman.. Hey, I could have done that <g>, as it did not seem to take a lot of talent, by Murray, I mean..

But that is just my opinion.. or fantasy... <g>..
