The Well? For Sale?

Sniff Sniff.

I haven’t been a member of The Well for years and years but this makes me sad. Makes me even sadder to see it labeled a pity buy.

Hmmm at Slate WaPo or HuffPo purchase.

I want to win the lottery so I can buy it.

Ah the good ole days…

No, Seriously. Save the Bananas. - New York Times

What to have with coffee after sex if not bananas? And well, what fruit would I eat? I don’t want a NEW kind. I want my plain old boring OLD kind. SAVE THE BANANAS. It is wrong for my bananas to be in danger of extinction.

The Dictionary


You’re The Dictionary!

by Merriam-Webster

You’re one of those know-it-all types, with an amazing amount of
knowledge at your command. People really enjoy spending time with you in very short
spurts, but hanging out with you for a long time tends to bore them. When folks
really need an authority to refer to, however, you’re the one they seek. You’re an
exceptional speller and very well organized.
