<p>After I had kids... OCD and Anxiety Disorders kicked in and it forced me to seek treatment.</p>
<p>I read Stephen Ambrose's "Undaunted Courage" about the Lewis & Clark Expedition and noticed far too many common personality quirks that I shared with Meriwether Lewis than to be comfortable with...</p>

<p>So I sought out treatment.</p>
<p>I also had a "spiritual awakening" around about the same time...</p>
<p>I'm not sure what the cause & effect that had on things... but I started getting invitations to "visit other churches" by Pastors in my area.</p>

<p>It worked out <b>GREAT</b> as therapy... I finally found a bunch of folks as effed up in the head as I was!</p>
<p>Soooo... THANKS you bunch of freaks.</p>
