Among my favorite books to read to my kids at bedtime is the Dr. Seuss classic “Did I ever tell you how lucky you are?”
It’s the story of a guru that sits upon a cactus, telling his young protege about all the ways in which things could be a lot worse. From lawnmowers responsible with Sisyphean lawns in constant need of trimming to a forgotten and forlorn coat-hanger rusting on a far off telephone line, the message is clear — be happy where you are, because it could be lot worse.
Supporters of the Colorado Rapids might need some convincing to believe that things are incapable of getting worse, though.
