It is then the nature of the circumstances that determines outcomes, not the driver's skills or intentions. #Quote by Philip G. Zimbardo

#6. On my next weekend without the kids I went to Nashville to visit her. We had a great weekend. On Monday morning she kissed me goodbye and left for work. I would drive home while she was at work. Only I didn't go straight home. I went and paid her recruiting officer a little visit. I walked in wearing shorts and a T-shirt so my injuries were fully visible.

She wants to change her MOS and you're not going to treat her like some high school student. She has a degree. She is a young professional and you will treat her as such."
"Yes, sir, yes, sir. We hold ourselves to a higher standard. We'll do better. I'm sorry," he stammered.
"You convinced her she can't change anything. That's a lie. It's paperwork. Make it happen."
"Yes, sir, yes, sir."

You could stop at the corner to buy a newspaper when a drunk driver veered onto the sidewalk. You could feed your child an E. coli-tainted hamburger. You could turn your head for a second while one darted out into the street. The threats to your child were infinite. And the thing was, if any of your children's lives were ruined, even a little bit, yours wold be, too. #Quote by Katherine Center

It doesn't matter which bus. Whichever bus comes next. Get on, and just go. You could ride that bus to the very end, thank the driver, and then walk into the woods and just die. Just lay down right there and wait and wait until you were dead. Who is going to miss you?
Really, think about it. If you went out to the middle of nowhere and just sat down in a ditch and cried by yourself until you were dead, who would be the first person to wonder where you'd gone?
Call them up! Maybe they want to get ice cream? #Quote by Joey Comeau
