A Few Notes
1) Is this blog dead? Am I the only one who follows it? Is there a twitter page now instead?
2) My parents are moving. So they made me clean out my bedroom.
2a) I got out a whole bunch of letters from college friends. Having read some of them, I'd just like to issue a yet another blanket apology to all of you for what a complete jerk I was. How did any of you put up with me?
2b) Special apologies to you know who and you know who else. I can't believe how self-centered I was.
2c) Try, if you get the chance, to read my editorial about the O.J. Simpson verdict (in the D, Oct 4, 1995)... it's a classic.
2d) This is a poem I wrote in high school, and turned in as an assignment:
The Life of a Sphere
Inspired by "Until Now" by Ralph Hertle
I want to break glass.
I want to tear things.
I want to kick holes in the wall.
But I can't.
I want to make people cry.
I want to kill little cute animals.
I want to destroy animals.
But I can't.
I want to scream.
I want to move apart from the pack.
I want to be different.
But I can't, because spheres aren't like that.
I can't, because well rounded objects don't do that kind of thing.
So here I sit, forever still.

I have some other ones that are even worse.
Good thing they didn't have social networking when I was in high school. They would have profiled me and locked me up.

You should ask Josh to post about what he did yesterday and his plans for tomorrow.
Very impressive.
I think you should post some of your most memorable speeches. I hear you had some great ones...
Yes, Dan, we're glad they didn't lock you up.
We went camping last weekend, and got poured on the second night. Our tent was not so waterproof. The kids were wiped out, though, and slept like rocks despite the dripping and wet sleeping bags. It reminded me of my DOC trip, of course, and made me thankful for experiences that make camping in the rain with small children seem not so bad.
And belated birthday wishes to all of you who have had birthdays in the last few weeks!
Umm...we probably won't be attending New Year's if Dylan Klebold is hosting...
