Today is my youngest son's birthday. When he was growing up, a Free Loader attached himself to my son like a leech. My son paid for his share and the leeche's for a couple of years. It was a one sided relationship like all relationships with a parasite.
When my son left home, he had a stroke of reality and realized what a leech the free loader was. He pulled the leech off of him and left him behind.
We talked to our son Friday to wish him Happy Birthday, and he said that he had no Free Loaders in his life! We all laughed and knew which leech he was talking about. That leech is still a free loader and has zero friends!
And that's another reason FR is so cool -- all the talented writers. This place is loaded with them! I am genuinely awed by some of the stuff that gets written around here.
