WHY BOTHER?   for Cecilia J. By 60, everyone is eccentric. This one plays with Japanese dolls, That one recycles her tissues. This one plays his new CDs on a home-made crystal set. That one talks to her table. You can fool them when you're young but when you're all grown up and you know what you like --- why bother?

Rachel McAlpine lives in Wellington, New Zealand.
