Come on. I know there MUST be some questions out there.
Lett'r rip! -------------------- "Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being "in love" which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Your mother and I had it, we had roots that grew towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossom had fallen from our branches we found that we were one tree and not two." -St. Augustine |

Okay, how 'bout this? If you saw $20 fall out of some lady's purse and she walked away, would you return it to her or keep it for yourself?

To be honest, because there's no other way to be -
I think I'd give it back to her. Its an old lady. Do you even REALIZE the economy boost they can accomplish with $20? Elderly women can literally spend 25 cents at every store without going over their limit, or buying something that they won't find some wonky use for. They'd get more joy out of that money than I would. I'd buy a pack of cigarettes, a Snickers bar, a Dark Mocha Yoohoo, and rye chips with that money. So. All of the above, AND the fact that money doesn't appeal to me the way it used to. I don't need it right now. I don't want it either. Sure, certain aspects of my life require money - But what I truly need is already provided for me. I am looking for a job right now, though. Having money does makes things more simple. But taking it, having not earned it or been given it, doesn't do anyone justice. A few years back, fuck yeah - I would have taken the bill from the dried up old prune and scampered away, bought me a dime bag and shaken my ass at her while she hobbled my way waving her bitchin' fire cane at me, yelling, ''Hooligan!'' with such vehemence that her dentures shot out. But I'm not like that anymore. :D -------------------- "Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision.
