It is amazing how I now see everything with my parents perspective! My teen sons have been taking stupid teenage boy risks (like picking up a downed power line, and jumping from high places), and I am constantly yelling at them "How can you be so smart and so stupid at the same time?", just as my parents did!

I know than revulses many of you (Kirby?) but English IS an ever-evolving language. No doubt there were many people in the 1600s decrying the then-current vulgar use of "you" for "thou" and "have" for "hast", and look where that got them!
