To You who made fun of me & mentioned need for a "shrink"

You don't need to tell me about 2-side printing as I was insisting on it

back in the day when America was happy, sandwiches were oversized, and Bill

Clinton has just began his tenure track.

Back in the day they thought I am "the guy who saves every crumble, bit,

nut, screw & of course CHEAP paper).

Now it's common.

I do print on both sides, besides - one sided printing means you carry

double weight and need to flip thru double number of pages.

Now the most important part of your advise, sir, is about a shrink.

I want you to know ONE THING:

I am today 38.

I look at early 20's and girls down to 18 never suspect. OK?

I am probably doing something right, because our Vice President when he

learned I am near his age, changed his face and got depressed. He does look

at 40.

His display is very bright, he drinks coffee every morning, keeps cellphone

on, brings in meaty/chicken stuff from a local fast food joint, and drives a

lot, and just wouldn't walk for even half-hour to get food.

And he likes it warm in the winter, and AC full blown in the summer, and so

what?

Bottom line you folks will die before me.

Because you're like those actors in early 20th century movies where everyone

smokes, and you're not a gentleman or a lady if a cigar is not sticking form

your mouth.

Decades later we discovered, that well - smoking is "bad"

AND YOU TOO will discover when your eyes get sick that well, bright/white

monitors are "bad".

Until then you'll be a happy puppy, confident that you're "normal" & people

like me need a shrink.

I should mention my grandgrandmother lived to 106 & died from boredom, from

missing her husband who died in his early 90's, and lack of will to live any

longer, not from a physical desease.

Same with some of my other relatives from whom I derive inspiration.

The bottom line:

I will continue using Black backgrounds, dark displays, black/hard/organic

bread made of nothing but rye, never turn a cellphone other than to talk &

read messages, walk whenever possible (not drive), use a bike if possible.

My computer looks like a piece of Gothic Art. If yours looks like a flashy

toy with blue, red & green lights, and a bright display which can light up a

room at night - that's your choice.

Have a nice day, Sir.
