I wanted to do an advanced google search this morning. I was looking for a particular phrase on a particular web site, but the only way I know of to do that is to do a plain old vanilla search from the main google page, then scroll to the bottom, then click on the ‘advanced… Read.

retirement
There was another one of those stories on the radio yesterday morning about people who retire, then start a new career because they don’t know what to do with themselves.

fingertipped
My fingertips are bleeding! My hands are chapped front, back, and now on the fingertips! What new ring of winter hell is this? I can’t type without fingertips! It’s like a kneecapping!

vintage
I walked into a record store wearing a ratty old t-shirt with the Georgetown bulldog across the chest and both the guys behind the counter were just flat-out wowed by it. “What an awesome t-shirt!” the first guy blurted out, when he saw it.
