Hi everyone, I have only just happened upon this sight. Loved Survivor! The depressing lines were overcome by the humour. Made me look forward more to dying, now that's when you can really start to live! I think it's fantastic being so lucky, even though if I had a swimming pool, it would probably go on fire!

it is a slice of real life displayed here, how often am i overwhelmed by the immediate, the electric being turned off, not enough to feed my family of six, four bald tires on an ’82 Renault, and to top it all, being made redundant. Those are things that weigh one down.
