Diver,
Your thoughts on karma? I know a few people who deserve some serious bad things, but nothing happens. Instead, I
always hear "bad things happen to good people," "only the good die young" and all that. What's up with that?

Karma is a cycle that takes place over many lifetimes,
so don't worry, that guy who performed
obscene acts on your dog may just come back in his next life as a dog, OK?
What you're probably thinking of is
dharma, or "quick karma."It may seem that all these evil-doers are getting
away with their wicked deeds, but don't
worry. Their cars might just, um, spontaneously blow up one day, if you catch
my drift.

Diver,
I'm not an angry or mean person, but sometimes, like when people blow it at work, I get pissed. How do you deal with
anger around your workplace? My wife thinks it could lead to a bigger problem. Although the incidents are pretty
isolated, I am concerned, too.

Dear (NAME UNKNOWN),Just chill out, OK? Childish pranks on the targets of your wrath are great for easing the
tension. Personally, I have been a life-long advocate for indoor snow ball fights.

Diver,
I'm trying to keep my son from being expelled from sixth grade. He took his very small and harmless pocket knife to
school. A teacher saw him showing it to a student with the blade out and freaked. These were two kids who are
friends, just being boys. Well I guess they want to make an example of "Johnny." With everyone being overly cautious
or downright paranoid, they want to kick him out of school. Your advice?

Hey Momma,
Chances are that your son is actually a terrorist. You should immediately report him to the Department of
Homeland Security. They will know what to do from there.
- Patriotically Yours,The Diver
