b2... your attitude is curious. It's as if you think it's absolutely a crap shoot what the next 5 minutes of your life will hold. How do you prepare for the future and make informed decisions? I'm just speculating that you don't read much because, "It's all doom and gloom anyway!" As if to say, "If it's not GOOD news, then why bother reading it?" I'm sure you understand the shortsightedness of this philosophy.
But hey, if it's working for you then good luck with that!
