First Ascent


I recently made it up the stairs for the first time.  While the folks are proud, I suspect that they are also terrified (also they're probably upset that they didn't put pants on me for this monumental occasion).....

A Bushel and a Peck


"Um, in case you were wondering, there are 4 Pecks in a Bushel"

"I mean, ehh..... who knew?!"

"Now if you really want to get serious and break it down....."

"..... that means that a "Bushel and a Peck" is equivalent to 5 Pecks or 1.25 Bushels..."

HUGE day




2 very exciting things have gone down in the last day, things that mankind will remember forever:



1) Physicists have discovered the once only theoretical "Higgs boson" or "God particle", which will help answer age-old questions about the origins of the universe and is a huge advancement in science....

2) ...and the Dodgers are back in 1st place.  The last couple of weeks were pretty brutal (3 straight shutouts against the Giants, I mean, cmon) but it appears that balance has been restored to the universe. Guys are getting healthy, we've weathered the storm, and we're ready for the 2nd half of the season.
