Top of mind awareness on some days, stream of continuousness on others. Sunday, April 27, 2008. You heard me, tough guy. This causes me to digress a moment. If 50 is the new 30, then the new eighth grade reader is now a fourth grade reader. Still, I gravitate toward people who read.
Cleveland Amory once said that only men could be curmudgeons. Monday, May 29, 2017. 1 You need a new shovel. 2 The morning after a hard rain is a great time to pull up unwanted saplings and other weeds. 6 You need a new nail brush! I was pleasantly sur.
