Let The Children (See A) Play
I’m not going to argue about this: I’m right.

And Now We Are 32
Three decades and two years. Today. I remember when I first learned the concept of a decade. It was 1980 and I was 8. It was the year of my first fully conscious presidential election. I know that Carter had defeated Ford in 1976 — the year of the Bicentennial, the drummer-boy quarter. My kindergarten …

Small Tremors
Even 4,300 miles away, an ocean between, tragedy doesn’t go unnoticed, even in the most mundane of means. A work email from this morning: “Please be advised that due to a major situation which occurred in Madrid earlier today, interexchange carriers are reporting much heavier than normal call volume on circuits throughout the European area.” …
