Well as a member of the particular group I'm in I've worked hard and paid
taxes without fail for 50 years, had a very successful marriage for over 40
of those years, raised two kids who have achieved much and have both lead
very successful lives without ever having been involved in any trouble, and
fingers crossed it looks like my grandchildren are both turning out to be
the same... How about you?
