Hehe, cheers! I was chuffed to get my boy his favourite thing in the world.

Hopefully it lasts till the madness is over or I will have to risk it again.

I have no idea what has gotten into people. I think these are the reactors of society and not the nuclear kind.

Just have to batten down the hatches and wait it out!

Well, I have to venture out among the idiots today... part of the joy of having online businesses is having to go to the Post Office now and then.

I do believe part of the problem we're seeing here has to do with broader humanity having grown less confident in their ability to face and manage hardship.

When I was a little kid, we played in puddles outside, drank straight from the plastic garden hose, rode our bicycles without helmets or pads, ate bugs and weird berries off plants "just because" and a hose of other things... and *we're still alive." Now we think we can barely make it from our front door to our mailbox to check the mail without "protective gear."

THAT is nutty, if you ask me...

I remember drinking from muddy puddles and being really careful because if you were clumsy you stirred the mud up. I don't think modern folksies could handle that kind of stuff! lolz!

It's a nutty world this 21st century!
