Introduction	My grandmother always said "anything in moderation is okay." I'm the ultimate moderate. I find people increasingly moving to extremes whether it be with eating, exercising, praying, talking, thinking ... This is exacerbated by a soundbite society where the information flow has led to people forming judgments based on limited bits of information fed to them by the media. To me, nothing is as bad (or as good) as it seems at first glance. As a result, I rarely rush to judgment and am completely open to changing my views once I get more information. I think "flip-flopping" is a sign of intelligence and willingness to adapt your views as you get more information.

Your pajamas have duckies on them. Why did you switch from choo-choos?

I have a silly sense of humor and the new pajamas just quack me up.
