A funny line
Yesterday my friend Jerry Pounds called me to ask if I knew of a florist close to the hospital where our mutual friend Tucker was hospitalized so that he could order some flowers for him. I said, «No, I don't, but what I'd do is go to Google Local and look one up.»
The Fun Addicts dot com
Back in the late 1970s while I was still a member of the S.P.E.B.S.Q.S.A., Inc. (now called the Barbershop Harmony Society), I was privileged to be a member of a quartet called the Fun Addicts. Bob Wilson (tenor), Forrest Umberger (lead), and Phil Petty (bass) were the other members. We sang together all over the country for only about three years, but we used to have great times together.

The highlight of my boyhood Saturday afternoons at the movies (price of admission about $0.25) wasn't the cowboy movie or the Tarzan flick that was at the top of the bill; it was the cartoon! Who'd have ever thought I'd be able to add a classic one, such as this, to my blog!?
Don't waste your time here
Instead of reading this blog, do yourself a favor and devote whatever time you might have wasted here to reading Hugh MacLeod's How to be creative instead. It is funnier, wiser, and more eloquent than anything I could ever write. And if his way of thinking tickles your fancy as much as it does mine, subscribe to the RSS feed for his blog.
Young Americans
I can only say that it's good to know that other people's youthful photos are as embarrassing as mine. This picture was posted on Flickr by Dave Winer.
