ARE YOU NORMAL?
Chances are if you don’t think you are, you really are. It’s the people who think they ARE normal that are frankly, wacky. For years, I have conducted my own completely, unscientific research and found the above to be quite true. Check it out yourself. Ask a group of friends and most will likely tell… Read more

BACK UP!
As I deliver this bit of shocking news, I hope that you are not sitting down. Frankly, you need to be standing at attention. Here goes: if you are over 40, only about 60% of you have even thought about getting old. However, one third of you prefer, ‘not to think about aging at all.’ … Read more

HELEN HUDSON HERE: TO FATHERS HERE AND GONE
As my construction crew headed off yesterday for a well deserved weekend rest, I suddenly asked: “Hey who here is a father?” As the hands went up, so did the grins. Turns out that one is even a grandfather. Suddenly, out came the pictures of daughters and sons; a curly-haired toddler in white crinoline, a… Read more
