There are people who like to say that people “my age” (meaning “older than 23 at the most”) are single “for a reason.” They never specify what the reason is though.
For men it is implied that the reason is not a good one, that there is something definitely wrong with him or he would’ve managed [...]

I read this story earlier, and the folklorist in me just had to comment on it. The Book of the Undead: Why Won’t Phone Books Die?
The article talks about how phone books have outlived their usefulness. Any more people can look up the information they want on the computer, or even on their phone. Yet [...]

I’m really interested to see how my class schedule is going to work this Fall. Registration is open now, so I thought I’d take a look at the classes that are being offered and when. There are six classes that I would like to take, that would be interesting to me, that would be good [...]

I started the day by driving to the edge of town to watch the sunrise. I think I’m ready for a nap now. Someone, a few years ago, said that watching the sunrise was an Easter tradition they had. I liked it. I would rather have that tradition than egg hunts. At least the sunrise [...]

20 years ago: 17 March 1988. We’d moved to Santa Fe the summer [...]

I think I’m just a little too excited about this. But they are opening a Tucanos in Salt Lake this April. If you register on the website they’ll give you a $10 gift card to use within 8 weeks of them opening. And I will be in Salt Lake within 8 weeks of them opening. [...]

Tomorrow is when the majority of the United States will change the time on their clocks to be one hour ahead of what they say right now. It’s called Daylight Saving, because you save the daylight for after work rather than before so you can enjoy it more during the summer.
Every year there are people [...]

Today is the perfect day for a parade. So this thread will be my parade. Please make a comment on what you will be contributing as part of my parade.
