Subject: This Post is so "Oldie"

So, Oldie, why do people have to hide their drinking or going to Vegas? Why not be open about it and be what you are? The people who you might offend would not be your true friends anyway. So how about it Oldie? Why aren't you content to be yourself?

Some places are like that, Susan. I raised my kids in a very religious area. The society of "our" type people is getting smaller and smaller.
College is more the place for kids to take up bad habits. To a degree, the kids are so sheltered that there is a fairly high incidence of youthful pregnancies.
There is also a fairly high incidence of adults scooting down the road a little so they won't be seen drinking by their peers. Hope my sons and their wives went undetected.
When they go to Vegas on vacation, they usually describe it as a fishing trip to Colorado.
