Re: OT: Is this normal?
I could give the speech about how lucky you are to be able to go to college (and how lots of deserving people can't even go) but that's usually a turn-off for the listener (or in this case, the reader).
Or, I could say something like, "Life is like a box of chocolates..." but that would be more as a result of TNT network having a Forest Gump weekend recently (and probably a bit too "cute").
Keep a stiff upper lip...? Ehhh, never mind. I never quite understood what that meant anyway.
Oh well, I guess I don't have anything to offer. Go ahead and quit and hopefully it won't rain much while you're digging those ditches. (Oh...sorry...that's what I say to my worthless, deadbeat, flunky, junkie, cigarette-smoking, car-stealing, beer-drinking, 15-year-old stepson).
