        Excellent read. I wonder if it's an urban legend? "If only one person knows the truth, it is still the truth." - Mahatma Gandhi Web - Blog - RSS

            Just last week I was telling my boss that the Tribe should really have its own nuclear reactor plant. The poor man is a good boss, but lacks vision! I know we can do it - thanks for pointing the way. Now where did I put that old watch?:suss: Boredom, Bull$^%&, Baggage, Bar - all start with 'B'
            Coincidence?

                    At 17, the guy isn't a kid anymore. Should parents be warden, or should they learn their kids to become grown-up by giving them the freedom they need to do so?
