Your rambling replies are ALWAYS welcome Percy!

So many spend so much on shit they don't need.

This drives me absolutely crazy sometimes. You ever see an old movie called Rancho Deluxe? It's pretty fantastic, was filmed in the 70's in Livingston Montana, about a couple of young guys trying to find their place in the world.

There's an AWESOME scene in it where one of the boys goes back to see his father, and his father launches into this tirade about how everybody has mortgaged their health, education, and future to buy pickup trucks. Living in Montana, it just gets me every time. Don't get me wrong, a good pickup is pretty awesome...but damn do people spend a lot of money they don't have on trucks.

If you ever get the chance, definitely watch it :P It's a classic.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and reading my shit Percy.
