Spielberg has an estimated 'worth' of about $3,000,000,000;
I'd say he had enough money. Yet, I don't believe that quite
puts him in the top ten in the Los Angeles area. It's a
funny old world.

highs : day dreams and hopes ,humos sandwiches , building
worthwhile machines and saving animals from being stoned to
death, riding my bike and browsing about on here reading
what you have to say.

in betweens sleep and stuff

lows --- most people , all causing pain and death onto
future life.for stupid little material things that do
practically sod all. billions and trillions (infinite to be
sure) will never be born or live because of our present
generations need for oil, stupid gadgets, poor energy usage
and sickly waste that you really dont
wanna go swimming in let alone drink or feed your plants
with.

HIGHS. mushy rooms and summer days.....days you wake up and
dont have to put on 6 layers of clothes to be warm. riding
my bike...
