       "He's just this guy, ya know?"- Douglas Adams
        When I was a small child, I wanted to wear something silly out of the house (I don't recall what, but this scenario is common enough...fill in your own memories!).  My mother scolded me saying something to the effect of, "You can't go outside like that!"  In standard juvenile fashion I asked, "Why not?"  "Because you look foolish.  What will people think?", she answered.  "I don't care what people think.  At least not those people who judge me that quickly." or with words to that effect, I replied.
"If you act THAT way you'll never have any friends!" she told me. "Then I won't have any friends!"
        Well, my mother won at the time because she was my mother and I was just a kid...and not a belligerent kid.   My attitude has never changed much, however.  I share what I have, but take it or leave it.  If you leave it, fine, but don't say I didn't offer.
