James, or is it Denise, we never know since you two never sign your e-mails, you are making a major leap and reframing.

1. "shit happens" is not synonomous with "wallowing in it."

2. "shit happens" is not synonomous with "there's no point."

I'll break it down for you, "shit happens" means exactly what you said about beans or cabbage or whatever the heck your favorite veggie was. It means, simply put, that it is unexplained, there is no one or thing to point a finger at and you move on.

3. "shit happens" does not mean "throw 2 steaks on"

So, to break it down even more, it doesn't mean you give up, but yes, quite frequently it does mean there is nothing you "could" have done. No it doesn't mean there is nothing you "can" do once "ship happens."

Like I said, you have a very pissy view of people! If everyone doesn't immediately toe the line with your opinion they are quitters or some other negative label *you* choose to apply to them, which, btw, doesn't mean you know what the hell you're doing when you apply the label. It simply means that to suit your parameters of the world, you *need* to label those who don't conform to your narrow view point into little boxes.

Contrary to what you and Gene were saying, "sometimes shit
happens." Period.

And contray to what you say, So what? How is anyone's life improved a wit
by wallowing in it.


You have a real pissy view of people in general, which is sad.


Alas, it's more on the lines of just the opposite. I have faith and
confidence in people that they could do better, all of us. Your view is that there's
no point, shit happens and there's nothing you can do nor could have done
about it.
