| 16. You can choose your friends... |
|
but you can't choose your family. Isn't that they way the old saying goes? As to choosing your friends, I've decided to be civil to all of my neighbors who voted for Bush, but I am not interested in friendship with them. I think friendship should be on the basis of mutual interest and beliefs and I have nothing in common with somebody who supports BU$H. May be harsh, but I don't care.
