Notable Guest Book Comments
      After a couple of months, I decided to add the question, "How is life treating you?" to my guestbook form. I am very glad that I did, and although most people just put "good" or "not bad" or "I liked your 'Thoughts Worth Thinking' section," I have received some truly unique responses. I have listed some of them below.
How is life treating you?
"Today was the best day I've had in a long time!!! Through a class I'm in at school, I was able to observe the birth of a beautiful baby boy this morning! Then shortly after that I was informed that in two weeks I am going to get to have my first hands on surgical experience! I haven't been this excited in a long time!!!"

I was born in the east end of Montreal during the depression and things were pretty tough both financially and from a social point of view. I was the only English kid on the block and in a pique of black humor used to say that I was 14 before I knew you could fight one person at a time. The isolation led to a scholarship to the best school in the city and some teachers whom I still revere. Have worked as a sports reporter for a Montreal daily, financial analyst, sales and as executive assistant to a Federal Minister. Married for 44 years and adopted three great kids. Now retired and have lived through cancer, broken back discs from Judo and bad knees from basketball and track. Still love a good scotch and preserve in my love of Greece, philosophy and good books.

And if they want to be tough, quitting smoking means they're pretty tough, right? I hear it's hard. My Grandmother's dying as a result of smoking... Life is great!

I treat life well, it treats me well. I don't fuck people over, so karma doesn't kick my ass!
