2005.08.17 Stuck in the 80's

I'm not the biggest fan of the 80's. I think, in general, it was a decade of misguided crap. The music left much to be desired. There were obnoxious beats, the attempt at an introduction of electronic equipment into music (which eventually led us to much better music), a fashion sense that is worst than most participants of TLC's What Not to Wear. We've all seen, or know, somebody who is stuck in the 80's.

2005.08.14 Hospital Visitors

Having babies is not an easy thing to do. I am going by my wife's words because I am not in any position to say things like, "contractions feel like a cramp and a muscle flex at the same time."

I have no problem with red hair. Generally it is unique enough that it attracts the eye, and draws some extra interest. It's almost like you want, at one point in your life, to have a girl/boyfriend who has red hair, if for nothing else, than to be able to say that you've done it. It's kind of like somebody with a pierced tongue, but that's a separate article. The point of this one is that people with red hair generally fall into one of two major categories - Truly Ugly, or Very Attractive.
