FUN!

What is fun and what makes it "fun"?  Everyone enjoys many things but not everyone enjoys the same things.  It has always been a mystery to me why some people enjoy things to which I am either indifferent or simply do not like.  We all have the same basic appetites but the things which satisfy them vary in ways which are not really definable.  I doubt if we would discover these wide swings of interest in other primates.

Can you believe that anyone could enjoy watering flowers or cutting the lawn"?  That's me.  Could you imagine that anyone wouldn't be excited to go to a Yankee game or a Beatles concert?  That's me.  Can you imagine that that same person would rather hold and play with a baby than catch a giant striped bass,  That IS me!  Watching your babies  grow up to be real people, that's fun.

I suppose it is good that we don't all enjoy the same things the same way.  If we did, we would all wind up in the same place all the time and it would be too crowded to enjoy whatever it was we were there for.  I'm from the Pop Keane school, When asked what he wanted he'd reply, "Peace and quiet and damned little of that!"

Just being alive and part of a great family is my "fun" so I'll have fun as long as I live.  As they say, "Enjoy!"
