Hugh Hefner's net worth at his passing: 43 million. Kind of makes you understand those gold diggers who marry old men for their money. Hef is in the grid today. Happy trails in The Summerland Hef.

At Oran, as elsewhere, for lack of time and thinking, people have to love one another without knowing much about it. --Albert Camus

What is time for? How often we say, "I don't have the time for ______" (meaning our marriages, our friends, our children, our hobbies, our parents, ourselves). Just what is important anyway?
Some people seem to do everything in the margins of their lives, without thinking or knowing much about it. They go to school, get married, have children, get divorced, experience losses, get jobs, all rather offhandedly. Their attention always seems to be somewhere else.

All of us are preoccupied sometimes. And sometimes, in the middle of our lives, the preoccupation clears. "I woke up this morning and took a long look at my life. What have I gotten myself into!" Suddenly, somehow, our full attention is turned on the matter at hand. Suddenly, we have time to think. What's revealed then is the pattern of our lives. Did we make choices at random, irresponsibly? Now that we can see, are there parts we can do over?

I'll endeavor to write my life story in the center of the page, not in the margins.

BTW, what do you think about school dances in 5th grade? My g'daughter hd 4 boys ask her. I didn't think 10 y.o. boys wanted anything to do with girls

8:09 am

MollyL

You would be surprised. Kids mature a lot faster these days.

8:10 am

bichon

Biology's the same. My g'daughters basiclly interested in sports

8:11 am

MollyL

Kids are exposed to a lot more now than they used to be.

8:12 am

bichon

I'd prefer that they'd wait to be interested in the opposite sex

8:13 am

MollyL

Most of us would prefer that

8:13 am

MollyL

I'm not a big fan of kids growing up too soon

8:16 am

Scrabbler

I think that school dances tend to promote unhealthy social behavior in kids/teens.

8:18 am

bichon

I am dismayed that 4 boys asked her. She wasn't going to go because she was afraid of hurting their feeling, but she eventually went with a boy next door because they both like soccer

8:19 am

Scrabbler

There is no need to promote coupling in preteens.

8:19 am

bichon

She's still 9

8:20 am

mkg

hi all.

Why even have a dance? It pushes kids to couple up and they are not ready for that emotionally.
