"we’ll be sending kids off to school in the dark for a while (sigh)"

That's odd. Where I live, the earliest school bus pickup is 7:30. The sun's been up for half an hour.

The last time I visited Disneyland was for Grad Nite, and the Skyway was unusually popular. That is, until I realized most of the passengers had a certain aroma about them.

My company recently moved to a new building and ordered new signs. These things are freakin' expensive! No way could we justify using three signs just to show the floor number.

When I was in school, boys had to wear long pants and shirts with sleeves. I really envied the girls on 90/90 days (90 degrees and 90% humidity).

I guess it depends on your definition of "fair". In the US, a deal's a deal, but in other cultures it's common to constantly renegotiate. They don't see it as taking advantage, or being unfair. It's just how things are.

"If you watch any of the many decorating shows that are so popular these days, you will see they always put lots of ornaments on the bookshelves, instead of filling them up with books."

On a recent show, one of the designers complained that the shelves were too narrow. I was thinking they were perfect for books.

I saw the video and it's really impressive. This takes a lot of lower-body strength. It doesn't hurt that these guys are all slim. I doubt you'd see many guys with a thicker build doing this.

I grew up on the east coast, where nearly everyone has an attic and basement for storage. Houses would be passed down and stuff would pile up. New households were furnished with things from Grandma's attic. I remember visiting relatives as a kid and having a ball exploring all these amazing treasures. We'd play dress up and have incredible adventures.

Out west, most houses don't have attics or basements. There's no place to store anything. I think it's sad that everything is considered disposable now.
