    I might have tried those but Mom was a margarine person and I couldn't stand its taste.

    I've heard that said of salt on watermelon. But I haven't been brave enough to ruin a good piece of watermelon for experimental purposes.

    We always thing that if we only had money we could do those things that we love on a regular basis, and that would make us happy, but what really makes those things enjoyable, is that they are special occasions and we can't do them all of the time.

    The wealthy generally fall in to one of 3 catigories.

    #1 Play Boy/Girly party people that have never had to work. these are some of the most unhappy and depressed people on the planit they turn to drugs and alcohol because their life has no meaning.

    #2 the workaholic, they just keep working and expanding thier business and wealth. these people generally have builty there own life and they are in love with working and that makes their life have meaning. These people ten to have no time to have a life, but are themself fulfilled through their work, there kids are usaually type one.

    #3 Those that work hard, play hard, have faith in a high power and are very generous with thier money giving liberally to the causes that they support. These are some of the happiest people that you will ever meet, and they are fulfilled because they love helping others. they generally have an overwhelming love for family.
