	Half empty or half full? Which are you? Reading in the paper that optimists are more likely to live longer.

	Lol BC pessimists can take you down can't they? I used to work with a fellow who whenever you went into work and said 'good morning, lovely day' would reply, it's going to rain/snow/freeze later!!! I try to be an optimist, slips sometimes but I try!!

	Hee Hee does this make me an optimist? I put off refuelling my car for as long as possible............driving on the fumes at times, methinks....... (or does it just make me a "Tight" person?) Bob

	Yes, I think I must be mostly a realist too.
