    However, that still describes many of the families where I live, except the homes are more expensive, and not every household has two major college athletes for parents or have won Emmys (although I've met a few Emmy winners here in the DC suburbs).

    Having said that, you never know what's going on in a household. Some families that seem perfectly perfehave deep issues, and some of the happiest people on the outside are very troubled on the inside.
    Richard Cory
    BY EDWIN ARLINGTON ROBINSON

    Whenever Richard Cory went down town,
    We people on the pavement looked at him:
    He was a gentleman from sole to crown,
    Clean favored, and imperially slim.

    And he was always quietly arrayed,
    And he was always human when he talked;
    But still he fluttered pulses when he said,
    "Good-morning," and he glittered when he walked.

    And he was rich—yes, richer than a king—
    And admirably schooled in every grace:
    In fine, we thought that he was everything
    To make us wish that we were in his place.

    So on we worked, and waited for the light,
    And went without the meat, and cursed the bread;
    And Richard Cory, one calm summer night,
    Went home and put a bullet through his head.
    no one sees what's written on the spine of his own autobiography.

    Wow, that reminded me of a song I haven't listened to in decades...

    There's nothing civil about this war.

    Haven't heard the song in decades either :-) We had to do a compare and contrast of the poem and song in one of my English classes back in high school. Think it was American Lit but the recollections are vague-ish...

    Simon & Garfunkel factoid: They both lived in my neighborhood. Garfunkel lived in a house on the same block as my old girlfriend in high school. Paul Simon's younger brother Eddie used to get into pick up basketball games with us down at the courts.
