"This is what you shall do; Love the earth and sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown or to any man or number of men, go freely with powerful uneducated persons and with the young and with the mothers of families, read these leaves in the open air every season of every year of your life, re-examine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency not only in its words but in the silent lines of its lips and face and between the lashes of your eyes and in every motion and joint of your body."
Walt Whitman, Preface to Leaves of Grass

When I think I do finally understand your sense of humor, the less I understand.
Gregory, I'd like Publisher's Clearing House to come along and say, with cameras and all, "You have won!" Or better yet, how about "You have the winning $100 trillion lotto number"
Seriously now - Paul, that passage from Walt Whitman is powerful.
Money won't make you any happier a person, than you were yesterday, a day before the windfall.
Well Paul, that may be true. But I would certainly like a crack at it and make up my own mind.
