Simple steps for a more perfect world
From Men's Health, "25 Simple Steps to a More Perfect World." The best:
10. Men would be permitted to admit uncertainty, and women would find this hot.
13. If you setout to climb Mt. Hood wearing shorts and sandals, and then have to be rescued by 12 men, two helicopters, and a team of huskies, your marginal tax rate would be raised to 81 percent until you've repaid the cost of being an idiot.
18. Parents would strive to give their children self-reliance instead of self-esteem.
25. Parent-teacher nights would come with nachos and tequila shooters.
Of course, your results may vary.

, atI have to read the whole article. Love it so far. Wish we had some nachos and tequila shooters at parent teacher nights. Might have made the nuns more fun.

My father's attitude was that you didn't deserve the self-esteem until you mastered the self-reliance. Good man, my dad.

I'm not sure nachos and tequila shooters would work well in my Lutheran and Catholic area of the state. But we could have one heck of a “Bring a covered dish and leave the kids behind” night, complete with cards and maybe bingo. Yes, we’re party animals here.
