My son asked at dinner, “Does anyone know when the universe was born?”

Before anyone answered, my 5 years old daughter said, “This is easy.  It is January 1st.”

My 10 years old son just came by and asked, “what are the differences between kiss and sex?”

Well, before answering the question, I need to know how much he really knows about them, “what do you think,” I asked?

“When people kiss with clothes on, this is just kiss”, he said, “when people kiss without clothes, this is sex.”

“Great job”, I said, “this is exactly right.”

I think this is as much as he should know at his age.

Best wish to all of you in Asia as it is 21st over there now.

There are more guns in this country than people.  With so many crazy mass shootings, why does no one fight back?  Where are people who have guns that can protect themselves and others?

“Drug free zone” or “gun free zone”?

Those are for good people.  When someone wants to do killing, these are inviting signs.  Violence against violence is never a solution.

I am growing sideways.  I can’t even see my toes when I look down. All I see now is my big belly.

I do not think my exercise works. I am still growing sideways.

Ten years ago, $10 can buy a lunch at McDonald’s for a family of three (couple plus one kid).

Five years ago, $15 buy a lunch at McDonald’s for a family of four (couple plus two kids).

Yesterday, I would need $25 to buy a lunch at McDonald’s for a family of five (couple plus three kids).

However, during the past ten years, my income only increases about 30%.

The most important factor of a purchasing power is not based off inflation but your own kids.  The purchasing power goes down dramatically as the kids grow up.  I can’t image what my life will be if they choose to go to college.
