You okay there Glenn? Did the cat whiz on your calzone again?
I have no idea where that came from.
We all pick our poisons. My brother has a butt load of money in the stock
market that he keeps losing and drives a crappy old Dodge. I decided to
forget the market and blow my money on an expensive luxury car. So what.
We all pick our levels of comfort and disease. If somebody wants to rack
up debt and live in luxury - that's their choice.
We all blow our money somewhere - be that now on big cars or later on
prescriptions of Viagramonoxodil...in the end, you're worm food.
Life is to short and brutish to not enjoy what it offers.
