For years, our family headed to the shore of Dumfoundling Bay, where we watched a multitude of July 4 fireworks in the distance along the Atlantic coast. Mom and Dad would stay upstairs to clean up from our indoor picnic. We would then rejoin them in their cool apartment for dessert and TV specials

Seeing this in the magazine rack made me go full 1970s. So I bought some V-8.

Editors leave legacies.

One invented the term β€œskyjack.” Another wrote the most famous headline ever: β€œHeadless body found in topless bar.”

Me?

Hmm ... Let me see …

I did come up with the phrase β€œToxic Tush.”

In newspaper days, a big story had to be told in 3 words that hit you on the head.

Wonder what Starship thinks of their hit song now selling toilet paper on TV: β€œWe quilt this city on a comfy roll.”

We took a family trip to Georgia in 2005 to see Savannah. We also stopped in Plains to see a president’s birthplace.

Not gonna lie: With all the Pop-Tarts talk on ABC from the Pop-Tarts Bowl, I did for a brief moment think about buying some. But then my brain suggested oatmeal instead.

Moved my remote office to another room today to accommodate guests. I ended up working next to the name of my parents’ clothing shops. So our workplaces have converged for the first time.

This is a new faucet at a Florida’s Turnpike rest stop.

It takes practice to use it. That’s because it spews water or hot air, depending on where you put your hands.

When I wanted water, it blew air. When I wanted air, it spewed water.

There are no instructions so you just have to figure it out.

The UM Hurricanes have been invited to the Pop-Tarts Bowl. That brings up these questions:

Do you prefer frosted or plain? Toasted or room temperature? Chocolate or fruit-filled?
