Yes, I realize some kids haven't had it so easy, but the majority around where I live are just handed everything - they don't have to earn a thing! They get a car when they turn 16, they don't have to work - they are going to be in for a real shock when they get out into the real world!

We have become the ME society. Its all about what is in it for "me". You state 25 and younger, but I see it in folks 40 and under.

Anyway time for a new but old subject, Charlee or was it Laura asked what machine would one take with them if a crisis were to occur.

I have been thinking about that. I keep flipping between a Two Spools and a Davis NVF. I can't make up my mind, but I think the Davis would win for the fact that it has the built in walking foot, great machine for quilting.
