Would you rather play a game with someone more or less talented than you? Would it matter who was watching? I'd rather play with someone who's better than me. That way I can constantly be learning how to improve whatever it is I'm doing. In theory, that's the best way to learn. And then when … Continue reading Question of the Week #91

Moves
We moved a lot when I was a kid. No, I wasn't an army brat. Dad just had this nomadic streak about him. The longest amount of time we ever spent in one place was 18 months. That was because of a recession and we couldn't afford to move. Or so I was told. I … Continue reading Moves
5 Movie Theater Pet Peeves
I love going to the movies. In fact, I've gotten to where I look forward to my Tuesday evenings simply because I know that's the night of the week that I'm most likely going to see something at the theater.

Out of My League
One evening, while I was on a break from work, I heard a song being played over the store's speakers. Honestly, I didn't hear the whole thing and I don't know what it was about.

Question of the Week #90
If you could choose the sex and physical appearance of your soon-to-be-born child, would you do it? Absolutely not. I mean, it would be nice to know the kid's gender before he or she is born. And apparently they have newfangled medical equipment that makes it possible to see these things at certain stages of … Continue reading Question of the Week #90

Grant was never popular during his high school years. So he should have been extremely suspicious near the end of his senior year when he was invited to a party by one of the beautiful people. But he was too excited to turn down the invitation. It all seemed innocent enough. Becky had approached him … Continue reading Popular
