GOOD ADVICE

If you are feeling obsessed with self-doubt and anxiety - and who isn't? - then bear in mind this excellent

advice from that great worldly-wise wit of yesteryear, Dorothy Parker.

Razors pain you;

Rivers are damp;

Acids stain you;

And drugs cause cramp.

Guns aren't lawful;

Nooses give;

Gas smells awful;

You might as well live.
