    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Up until the age of 25 or so, all boys are idiots. Do not blame them for it - works as designed. It's not their fault, but you still have to negotiate this period. Now, you may from time to time run across one who you think, "well, HE's not an idiot!". Do not be fooled. It simply has not manifested itself yet. So, date them, have fun with them, just keep that fact in mind when making decisions about them.

        The best ability is dependability.

        Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

                  On that theme, go watch "Invincible", if you have access to Amazon Prime Video, or read the comic book.
