I have often thought that one of the traps of career and parental responsibility is the notion that as we age and mature we must become more serious. Acting silly after a certain age is perceived as immature and an indication that one is less than professional. <BR/><BR/>Screw that!<BR/><BR/>Life brings enough serious circumstances to us without us having to force the issue. We (the male white collar professionals of the species) are supposed to carry ourselves in a certain manner lest we be considered undignified. <BR/><BR/>Life is to short to surrround ourselves with oh so serious people with oh so serious goals and aspirations. I, for one, will wear my silliness proudly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13179662.post-1149561541447793942006-06-05T19:39:00.000-07:002006-06-05T19:39:00.000-07:00Jackie Gleason and Norton and Gilda Radnor are 2 o...Jackie Gleason and Norton and Gilda Radnor are 2 or my favs. that come to mind.rdlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04062856086277201874noreply@blogger.com
