1. Personal responsibility

   I have to admit some frustration with "they" should make (fill in the blank ) safer, easier, etc. Over the last 50 years of my life I have watched the government, companies, and individuals clamor for more safety, more regulations, more protection, and then hear complaints about "big brother" interference. Anyone who has ever attended a baseball game whether in their own neighborhood, or in an events stadium has seen foul balls fly into the stands. For that matter, there are those who deliberately wear their gloves in the hopes of a "fly" coming their way. Why should we wrap the audience in plastic because someone didn't bother to read their ticket? (BTW, I do read those silly things) We are warned everyday about liability limits on the back of ticket stubs whether from the ballpark, the dry cleaners or the parking garage where we leave our car. Life has risks, you have to take personal responsibility for the choices you make and the risks you choose and then don't blame someone when something goes wrong. Stuff happens.

Define what responsibility means to you.
