Child molestation is a touchy subject... Read the papers! Half the country's doing it!

You are much more dependent on luck than you think. People say if you want to have a good relationship, you have to work at it. But you never hear it about anything you really like, about sailing or going to soccer games.

I don't know enough to be incompetent.
