I’m thinking about starting a business.  A business that will help millions of families…  Yes, a policing system for stupid, ludicrous life decisions made by family members and friends that turn your life upside down.  Having made some nonsensical judgments in my past, I think I am a perfect candidate for evaluating stupid choices made by misguided people.  Some examples that my Ludicrous Life Decision Policing System could help with:

-An Uncle that is a father of five, thinking about quitting his job and moving his family to Alaska, and pursuing a love of igloo architecture.  I would intervene and find a resolution, like smacking some sense into him.  No peaceful resolution here- just tough love.

-A teenage daughter that wants to quit school, get a tattoo of a clown on her neck, and move in with her rodeo clown boyfriend.  I would intervene by taking her to a local trailer park and making her live with a family of ten in a four room trailer for a week (if it even takes that long).

-Your newly widowed father who wants to marry someone thirty years his junior, buy a yacht, and spend his remaining years looking for a mermaid colony in Australia.  Well, seriously aren’t you just a little curious about mermaids? 

I think this would be a booming business!  I could tell people to stop being stupid and screwing with your sanity. I see a bright and busy future here; there is one of these people in every family…

The post above was *tactfully*  actually posted January 10, 2014 and I decided to revive it this January.  No family members were hurt in the development of this business idea.
