Out Of The Mouths of Babes

Saturday, April 30th, 2005

Yesterday was payday. And even better, it started raining just before lunch. It was one of those rains that you could tell was going to last all day, so we got to go home early. That meant we could get to the bank before the Friday rush. This was doubly good because it also meant [...]

Distinguishing Markings

Thursday, April 28th, 2005

Today’s entry was inspired by a post by Joe.My.God. He wrote in his blog about how a group of his friends would attach descriptive words to some of the other’s names in order to distinguish those of the same name from each other. It made me think back several years ago when I was invited, [...]

Sounding Out The Word
