Thoughts: I'm absolutely blown away by his resume. I wasstrongly considering getting a PhDafter I left the private sector in 2012, but realized I was too dumb and impatient. The weird thing is, after all his education, he went on to join companies that have nothing to do with what he...
Again, I’ll emphasize that most healthy adult elves have a pretty strong sense of self and this is reflected by a fairly stable appearance from day to day; shifts in appearance are often reliable, IE “When Raevan is feeling sad, her hair is jet black.” But it could be that elves ...
I've seen too many divorces where the wife ended up in financial turmoil because she had sacrificed her career for her husband and family. Then they broke up. Being out of the workforce for years makes finding work difficult. I know, as someone who retired in 2012 and began looking for ...
The marker here in Modern Mayberry is only for remembrance, to let people like me know he lived. And, I saw it, and learned his story, and every year around this time, I tell a few people from Modern Mayberry who haven’t heard about him. The Mrs. plans to put some flowers out ...

LM: When we lived abroad--we lived in France for a year, and we lived in China for a year--it always seems that being exposed to these other cultures actually makes us think about our own country even more. Have you found that to be true? Is there a way that being away from ...
Jessie was the uptight, book-smart, confident young woman who lived by the rules and was laser-focused on being smart and successful. Zendaya could really play any character, but we could totally see her as the long-legged, curly-haired beauty with a smart wit. ...
A friend and I were just discussing the recently-relegated Newcastle United. We both found it kind of odd because we’d lived through the 90s, during which time Newcastle were a frantically entertaining and relatively successful club. One week they’d lose 4-3 to Liverpool, the next they’...
