The world is as you are, Barry. A sad, unhappy old man, sees a sad, unhappy, old world. (I have seen your recent picture). But not all of us do. For some of us, the world continues to be a brighter place, with new friends, new places, so much love, and endless adventures. There is enough diversity in the world for you, if you had the consciousness for it, to be far removed from the subjects that trouble you so. You could be enjoying endless fun and high spirits, in Europe, instead of chasing us around like an old maid, with a broom. Enjoy life, and become the best example of it, instead of this churlishness, this complete waste of life you indulge in. You live with a vibrant young child. Emulate her, instead of kicking your mind all over the field of unhappiness. Anyway, my two cents, for helping you out. He's just your garden variety rude and churlish boor. Simple as that. What else lies behind his actions I will leave to others who give a damn but your insights are always welcome.
