Not quite, Dive. Here's a clue... "Main Street" = anywhere and everywhere, including the lovely communities in which you and I reside.

We're all a bit weird, you know. Look in the mirror again. I just did.

Interesting observation, Scotty. Probably the wrong reason to show compassion but certainly true that some are given to understatement.

In luck. Looked all day and finally found a pair, from my early youth that I remember wearing on Cape Cod, with a band of kelly green.

Grampy, I tend to believe that the reactions people have toward others is a direct reflection of the person's moral fiber and/or insecurities. If you find yourself laughing at someone that you percieve to be at a lower station in life than you, you should be recieving the compassion rather than giving it.

Hey, Hop, welcome to the club. Hardly a day goes by without getting my own blown to a lesser or greater

degree. Mostly pleasant. Whenever it's otherwise just take it hit by hit, blow by blow and shock by shock.

"a man walking along the sidewalk wearing hot pink socks, orange slacks, jade tanktop, purple hat and red high heeled tennis shoes."

good for you, Bobby! good to see you coming out of the fashion closet.

i didn't know there was such a thing as high-heeled tennis shoes, so i've learned something from this wonderful thread.
