“… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.
I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.
Thomas Jefferson
At least this thread turned intellectual. LOL
I was 12 in '75
"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."
Samuel Adams

I've heard THAT one before. I have everything in the world and I'm tortured. Try having to work for a living and STILL not having enough money. Sorry, no sympathy from me for Cobain, Jackson or Prince. The only one I really felt sorry for was Hendrix. He was totally exploited by his managers. They took every cent he made and gave him just enough money to get a burger. Thar actually happened to Joe Lewis (boxer) as well.
Celebrities kill me. They have everything the rest of us would love to have and pull this "My soul is tortured" crap. Oh wah. "I haven't had to work in 30 years. Think I'll go OD back at the mansion". Crap, I'd have a really nice truck and new guitar if I had all that crap and invite all of y'all to aggravate me at the mansion.

We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language, for we intend to see that the crucible turns our people out as Americans, of American nationality, and not as dwellers in a polyglot boarding-house; and we have room for but one soul loyalty, and that is loyalty to the American people. ~Theodore Roosevelt~
