I wish they would rediscover a whole lot of things.  At Publix a few hours ago the cashier asked if I wanted to give to the Special Olympics?   I told her yeah, give em a ten spot.   The young lady was totally nonplussed.   I looked at her and realized I had given her a brain lock.   I told her Yes, ten dollars.

The next time I'll tell her, I guess so, give em a sawbuck.

Then after that, if the Special Olympics appeal is still on going, I'll say, I can split with a "Hamilton", because that's my middle name.

Kids just don't read anymore.

Norman coordinate!

I’ve been amazed how many well educated young people born in the nineties unfamiliar with The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Washington Irving, except something about a horror special effect headless horseman. Now , that’s the parents’ fault, I couldn’t wait to read those stories to my own children
