Standing in line in front of me two college students discuss the courses they are taking after a comment about dropping a class one asks the other: โ€œIs it just me or is everyone having a sore throat?โ€ and instead of waiting for the other to answer I moved to a different line.

I'm so old I watched some Captain Kangaroo and Muppet Show in first run and let me tell you it's weird thinking that is farther away from now than Howdy Doody was from my childhood.

my cat has no responsibilities, but all day he walks around the house from room to room with this utter sense of purpose, as if he has an endless to-do list of tasks no one asked for. just this weird small furry dude going about his little cat errands.

I'm continually impressed at how many of these questions people are freaking out shouting on TV opinion shows have actual well known, simple answers if you only actually ask an expert and let them answer.

Philadelphia Fountain Pen Show and the U.S. Chess Open are in the same hotel causing nerds to be torn apart in a gravity well at the top of the escalator. Chances of a sighting in the bar are high.

Favorite new, obscure, indie #HorrorMovies?? Not interested in "house making person act crazy", "home invasion", "inbred hillbillies", movies that start w/ 5 teenagers in a jeep or anything where someone puts their hand in a garbage disposal. Preferably not from the U.S....

Do you like Dr. Seuss or not folks, make up your minds.

School administrator stops reading of "The Sneetches" by Dr. Seuss, because a 3rd grader (correctly) surmised that it was an allegory about racism and segregation. The Administrator declared Dr. Seuss inappropriate for 3rd graders. Welcome to Republican America. twitter.com/JeffreyASachs/โ€ฆ
