Yes, and we're still having fun with this one.  Aren't you glad we didn't lose him in the Crash?

Third time's the charm?

Exactly! Which is why this old boy is NEVER going to take another flu shot!  Barely survived the first two taken approx 30 years apart.

I was brought up where you should have about half year wages in your savings account to fall back on. Do people still do that? I don’t know too many people who don’t have more than a couple thousand saved up. I also know quite a few who have none.
I had enough to get through a couple of years....now down to a couple of months. Boom/bust economies stink on ice...

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
