Awww, thanks! Things really aren't so terrible, I suppose. :-)

I really need to check out the new Farm Town features sometime soon. Multiple plots in a single click!!

Yeah...it's like every time you turn around it's a different holiday.

I also remember things being a lot better than they used to (ranging from advertising and quality of manufactured goods to feelings and emotions.).

Heh... I've managed to widdle down the amount of holidays I celebrate with my family down to less than a handful. Sanjit and I don't really even do much special for our birthdays. I guess we just figure we're already doing the things we like doing on a day-to-day basis, so why mess that up by trying to make one day more special than the rest?

Maybe for perspective we should invent anti-holidays, where you live your life by 1950 standards for a day. You could work for a few hours in a dangerous steel mill, engage in some old-fashioned Rockwellian child abuse, and perhaps wrap the day off with a little just boys being boys date-rape. After that, maybe we'd come to appreciate the day-to-day life of being childless, urban deviants.

live your life by 1950 standards? Isn't that what republicans do every day?

I've stopped aging so the years can fly by at will :)
