And to what can we attribute this colossal "living beyond our means" phenomenon? I don't think it's because we've had so many emergencies. It's because we don't ever want to feel poor. Poor is the feeling you get when faced with an invitation to join all of your rich co-workers for a chichi lunch -- and you've got $8.43 to last until payday. It's that feeling you get when you see a commercial for the coolest car on earth, and all you have is a 10-year-old clunker. The worst response when feeling poor is to do the very thing that should prove you're not: spend money. That might make the feeling go away for a while, but as soon as you realize you've just plunged yourself deeper into debt and made your situation worse, you'll feel even poorer. I have a better idea. Stop feeling poor in the first place. Here are three surprising steps to follow. 1. COMMIT TO A CLEAN CAR. No matter how old, how scratched, how new, how leased or how ugly, if you keep your car sparkling clean inside and out, you won't feel poor. BY JENNIFER COOPER Social Security Manager in Redding From the stables to the tracks, people across the United States are already talking about this year's Triple Crown. The three biggest thoroughbred horse races in the nation — the Kentucky Derby in Louisville, Kentucky; the Preakness Stakes in Baltimore, Maryland; and the Belmont Stakes in Elmont, New York — take place in the Evangelist services, 7 p.m., Family Bible Church, coming weeks. It has been 34 years 609 Marin St., 824-9989 since a horse has won all three and taken the U.S. Triple Crown.
