    I want to move to Belize or Costa Rica and just enjoy life.  America is doomed as is most of the civilized world.  I want to live with the baby crocodiles and coral.
    I'm like an opening band for your mom.

    I feel the same way.  Civilization seems like it's crashing.  I hope I'm wrong, but....

    Civilization may be doomed, but please tell me the book in written form will live on.
    How do you keep a bookstore open these days?

    The worst of times..they don't phase me,
    even if I look and act really crazy.

    I'm sorry to say this and could be completely wrong, but the US seems doomed looking from afar, our news here is dominated with what's going on in the States, Trump and his fucked up administration endless problems, it's like the fall of the Roman Empire all over again in a modern setting..

    North Korea.
    Threat of nuclear war.
    Terrorism.
    Racism dividing communities.
    Police brutality.
    Murder rates, Chicago and Baltimore are particularly bad.
    Drugs and it's destruction to families (was reading recently about how high meth use is there and heroin use is still increasing as is crack).
    Climate, the weather is out of control! Fires in California, Hurricanes in the south and east, flooding and Trump doesn't believe in climate change...?!?!?! Wow.
    Even the voting system seems very messed up.

    Don't get me wrong I love visiting the US, have been there a few times and plan to go again and we are far from perfect here in New Zealand and have some of the same issues, hard drugs, robberies, murders and the government dominate our media too, but I know where I'd rather be when it gets really real, down here on some small islands at the bottom of the world..

    like i say to many people...that there´s less days in front of the horse, than riding in the back of this cart
    i will be outta here before the shit storm hits. good luck nephew and nieces cause you will need it
    and forget about their kids cause they are f'd worse x10
    i'm generally try to be upbeat...but our world is messed. we are not moving forward fast enough. imo
    way too many distractions from the shit that actually matters
