SNOW

Whens the last time you remember snow in Philadelphia in November? I can remember we were amazed one Turkey day when I was a kid see a quick shower.

Riding a bicycle through a heavy flurry is the worst. Where windy rain is impossible, rain at this intensity falls straight down....it does not float STRAIGHT INTO YOUR EYE!

Man, this global warming and these gas prices are really getting on my nerves.

Short Stories

At work we've been down all morning.....ZERO connectivity and I've just been sitting here reading short stories from two books, one a Philip K. Dick collection and the other, a collection of zombie tales by people like Stephen King, Neil Gaiman and Clive Barker.

I've realized that many people don't read AT ALL. Not even the paper(Who reads that anymore anyway?). I suggest you find someone who doesn't and entice them to read short stories. They are quick usually easy to read and may challenge them to read more.

Can't hurt.
