Where you the last to be chosen which team in gym class?

@DeWayfarer My "group" wore all black (turtlenecks) while younger than the "beatniks" pretty much the same ilk. Listened to Theatre of the absurd. Camus/ Sartre etc. and convinced ourselves we were intellectuals LMAO....college was a wake-up call to our delusional fancies.

@Grateful4you I don't recall any specific clothing. Not that it mattered. I was the social misfit and didn't belong to any social groups.

@DeWayfarer I'm willing to bet you've gone far since then. REALLY far!

@Grateful4you nope! We live in a social society. Everything is who you know, not what you know nor what you have mastered.

Just the whole concept of "social networking" says that.

@DeWayfarer Then become the one to know. Sounds trite I know, but "Toastmaster Intl" really works wonders, from there it's civics clubs and before you know it YOU are the person to "Know" and don't say your too shy/inhibited, so was I and that's what Toastmasters can totally erase and it's actually FUN!

@Grateful4you little late now. Maybe even 10 years ago that would have helped. Takes time to build a network, social or even computer. Time that I no longer have. 😞

@DeWayfarer Oh hell there are folks a decade or more older than you. I had the excuses too, you think I didn't have a busy career? PLEASE for once think out of the box and take a risk you'll never regret even if it's only Toastmasters, one thing leads to another. At your age even you know that I'm the same age as you and I know it will change your life. Please just go once and see.

@Grateful4you dad passed away of cancer at 70 mom not much later. I'm soon to follow that same path.

@DeWayfarer Oh gosh that's really sad. Are you symptomatic or holding the course? Okay, by now you already think I'm some half-baked lunatic but listen very carefully, when you have a chance, check out Rene Cassie. She lives in Canada and once had a clinic for cancer patients. She was closed down because, this is the part that sounds looney tunes and I know it, but her name keeps popping up in health books I read and there are a few clinics in Mexico that are using her blend of special herbs given to her by a tribe in Canada. You can see for yourself on YouTube as it tells her story better than I. This Native American blend has cured cancers in Canada, America, Mexico, I come from a medical background and know for a fact that if a cure for cancer was found tomorrow practically the entire medical community would collapse. The AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY is the richest non-profit in the world. Thus they closed Rene Cassies clinics, here in America and Canada. But her blend of native American herbs remain cheap and available either on-line or Ma and Pa health food stores the brand name is esissac (the shopkeeper should know it. I take it daily using my tea ball letting it seep a good long while and add honey and it's actually rather tasty. I also chew a few stems or seeds but that's just me for a more concentrated tea. I SWEAR I have NO interest in telling you this, I get not one penny, only the satisfaction of mabe helping this should the disease eventually manifest. Best to use before disease takes hold I think. Read her story, decide for yourself and perhaps let me know eventually. My best, David Hart.
