If you've got the finances to do that, ride horses out in the countryside, then I'd say that's lucky. Some of us are holding on by a thread to stay a live with the lack of jobs, kids to support and living in an urban hell hole.
I've moved six times in my career. I started out in a very large megametropolitan area. I now am in a 'subdivision' between two very small towns and about 20 minutes away from a city of 150,000. My wife and I downscaled - she stays home with our five children and we don't have boats, snowmobiles, personal watercraft, designer automobiles, timeshares in Aruba and the like.
Our Windstar is 1998 and our PT Cruiser is 2002.
I am active in the local Knights of Columbus and lector and play organ at our church. There is no way I'd go back to an urban hell hole. We breathe clean air, and the sounds at night tend towards crickets, owls, and the occasional coyote. It's all choices, dude.
Mr. Rogers has served our country valiently. Also a choice.
My father's Alzheimer wasn't my choice, my house losing all value wasn't my choice, losing a baby wasn't my choice., Life happens despite our best laid out plans. There's nothing wrong with being lucky. If you've got it, be proud of it.
the public has voted with their dollars.
how many liberal agenda movies die before they even start. Even those who still go to movies, the trailers will kill off a movie.
(ie notice how ann hathaway never appears in the batman commercials before the opening date?)
Movies die fast in the era of social media. http://Themoviespoiler.com
and alternative sources.
young kids know how to see movies for free without needing to wait for dvd/blueray/box sets. Older people know to just wait two weeks and the dvd is out and three weeks for cable/sat release.
