6. I used to ride. I never took lessons. I'd just drive out to this one farm, ask for their fastest
   
horse, make it gallop and go for it. No helmit or nothing. What a fool I was.

Nothing has changed.

5. A better question would be what do I still do that I used to do.
   
There is too much that I used to do and don't do now. Sadly, laugh a lot is one of the things I have lost too.

8. I am glad that you are not
   
self-depretiating now too. I was never able to be funny. I just never did have the wit for it. But I love to laugh. I just take everything too seriously these days.

I don't sing and dance around like I used to either. That used to be as good as laughing. Hmmmm, so what is stopping me???

13. Act
   
I was pretty good at it back in the day. I won awards, never had a bad review. I just never got paid.

It has been decades since I did that.

They paid you what you were worth.

19. Same as you, actually
   
I used to actually be fairly quick-witted and always bouncy and laughing. Now I'm gregarious and depressing. I really don't know why it happened. It actually has me a bit worried. Thing about it is that I'm generally a happy person. I'm happily married, have a decent paying job and not much to complain about. I think it may just be part of getting old.

I see more and more of my father in me as the years go on.

Other than that, I used to play guitar, fish, all sorts of things. I really need to get out of this rut.

28. Write, as in fiction or poetry. I still write in a journal--occasionally.
   
Try to force myself to be outgoing (I'm just not.).

Drink lots of cups of coffee (can't because of GERD).

Drink alcohol. Smoke cigarettes. And other stuff.

The world needs less writers.

It doesn't surprise me that most of they forgot how to laugh.

A pathetic collection of losers.

Without laughter, what's the use of living?

That whole thread is solely the fault of George W. Bush.

I used to go fishing and hunting squirrels and rabbits quite a lot.  Now I work too many friggin' hours/days to find the time to do it anymore.

I don't think that's what the DUmmies mean though.

Something tells me their claims of laughing alot in the past were never alot to begin with.  They laugh when someone they hate politically has a misstep or is damaged, but their lives revolve around being misreable and seeing that everyone around them is at least as equally miserable as they.

During the Bush years, we predicted that even with a Dem in office they'd still be complaining, miserable, and making excuses for why things weren't going the way they wanted them to go.  We were right, as we always are.
