Re: Kids

Congratulations to my buddy Troy who just became a daddy for the first time.

I had a three year-old and her folks living with me for two weeks. They moved out on Saturday. I know that it must be especially tough for a little girl to move from Japan to Colorado by way of Washington and to not really have any sort of home for a month. But what the experience taught me is that I really don't want kids. They are way too time consuming, and they refuse to listen to logic. My parents assure me that it's different when they're your own kids, but I can only see it being different in a worse way. You've got no where to run and all of the monetary and time expenses. Besides, I won't need kids to take care of me in my old age -- I'll have the government.
