Have you read much about and of Mia Farrow? That wasn't a very healthy
relationship.

Some people get kind of crazed about adopting children, and more and more of
them. We know someone personally with an odd urge to adopt. (Oh! Two
families, now that I think of it.) To the obvious and direct detriment of
their already-there children, they add more.

But that was the story of two famous people and their personal unravellings
and situations.

The movies are not based on that, nor about that.

I have a friend who loved Harrison Ford and loved all the movies. I like
most of those movies. I've enjoyed watching Harrison Ford act since American
Graffiti.

So he left his wife. That's none of my business. It's sad, but they'll
recover.

But my friend refuses to go and see another movie of his or read an article
because he left his wife. She doesn't know either of them, and never will.

I understand some of Elvis's fans didn't react well when he got married.

That is a little bit TOO much vicarious living and fantasy life. Either like
his music or not. Have a crush on his 20 year old form or not. But get a
grip on where you are and what is what!!

So unless Dan and Matthew have a crush on the robotics teacher (WHICH I
SERIOUSLY DOUBT) and unless they plan to make an icon of him which they will
turn to in times of trouble and doubt, wanting to grow up to be just like him
in every way, I don't see a problem with them continuing to learn robotics
from him.

If the robotics-club market were broad and varied, yeah--make it one of
several factors, along with how comfortable are the chairs? What time is the
meeting? How's the parking?

I've seen people leave a church because they didn't like the way the pastor's
wife treated her kids. Never mind Jesus, they want to control and approve
all aspects of the lives of those they feel are controlling and approving them
. At least in a church it's two ways. I'm pretty sure Harrison Ford didn't
give my friend a single thought when he and his wife were disagreeing.
