Myself, I'd rather be utterly terrified, in a blithering blind panic, and completely beside myself, given the choice...(which pretty well describes my mother when her little doggies are out of her sight for more than 3 minutes...)
Look, we all have our own way of being happy and finding meaning in life, okay?
I recall when flattop thought the world was going to collapse on Jan 1, 2000 because of the Millennium Bug. It didn't. Talk about a major disappointment! He still carries the wounds today...
