Whenever I start to get annoyed (I have 3 sons, but two are in >their twenties now) I just remember when I was a kid. They are ten times better >than I was! >;-) Once when I was in elementary school (Grade Three, I think), the teacher said, "We need someone today to help watch the Grade One kids as we walk them to the bus stop after school. Mark, you are well-behaved; why don't you volunteer?", she asked. "Wow", I thought, "what an honour!" Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Well, obviously, those Grade One kids ran circles around me. After several dozen hopeless attempts to keep them in line, I was reduced to whimpering pathetically, "I'm going to TELL on all of you!" This was greeted with a deafening roar of scornful laughter. I'm 50 years old now, and the strange thing is that I grow more like those Grade One kids every year. Mark :)
