If We Did The Play in the Backyard with Ten-year-olds
Youtube is a scary thing.
Is that little girl playing the moon?
I'm so confused.

"That thing is a trap," said City Mouse. "The minute you touch the cheese something comes down on your head and you're dead." The little Country Mouse looked at the trap, and at the little City Mouse. "If you'll excuse me," he said, "I think I will go home. I'd rather have barley and grain to eat in peace than have sugar and dried prunes and cheese and be frightened to death all the time!" So the little Country Mouse went back to his home, and there he stayed all the rest of his life.

Why didn't we get the little girl. She would have been much better than the old guy we cast.
that is terrifying.
Maybe I missed something, but was all of this frenzy about self-help in response to a simple comment like, "It made me appreciate the days before self-help and Doctor Phil when there was an opportunity to wallow in one's misery without feeling guilty or self-indulgent for doing"?
Well... I have been around for a long time. I remember the days before people did most of their reading for free at Barnes and Noble. I actually go back to the days when people went to the library to peruse large quantities of books.
My take on self help books is that like diet books, they purport to have the answers, but often offer nothing more than a catchy new title or a slightly new twist on the same old thing.
I can't believe that so many therapists, counselors, psycologists, etc. have come with so many novel and different answers to our problems and put them down on paper to justify their publication!
Or like the doctors and others who write diet fad books (this is the one... it can't fail!!!!) is this a simple matter of... hey, I can use the extra income and somebody somewhere is probably willing to publish it for me?
