“Though a man often pleases by inferiority, there are few who desire to give such pleasure.”   — Samuel Johnson

(When I was a kid, I always used to take pleasure in people who were over weight, had bad teeth, and/or were bald.  Then I became best friends with a guy who had horrible teeth and was about as bald as they come.  Fortunately, I’ve kept most of my hair.  There’s been a certain amount of receding, but not as much as most of my contemporaries.  I still have great teeth.  Sure, they’re a bit longer now . . . but, they’re still mine.  But the weight issue?  Hoo boy!  I could stand to drop about 30.  It’s just so damn easy when you’re young.  The concept of a slowing metabolism just does not hit home, until all your bad habits become entrenched, nearly unbreakable, vices.  Be careful what you scoff at, young ones.  Life has a way – many ways – of biting you on the butt. )   — YUR
