The wind is blowing like crazy here in West Monroe. Not sure what it means, but the birds are very active. The humming birds are the most active I've seen them in weeks.

Has anyone ever used the phrase "not to be pedantic, but. . ." and not followed it with pedantry?
And it's not just nerds - insert "racist" or "a wet blanket" or "y'all, I don't mean to be ugly, but. . ."
Why do we do this to ourselves? If someone begins a conversation with "not to be rude," everybody knows what's coming, right? It's counter-effective at this point. We're on to it.
So why don't we just say what we're going to say, and if it needs to be defended, defend it directly and specifically (or don't say it)?
Sweet potato fries freaking rule.

Buffalo is now SUNY Buffalo. SUNY = State University of New York? Why the change in ID? Is this the first year for it?
I'm going to start a line of clothing and accessories for marathon runners. The slogans will be things like, "Every Step Sucked" and "I wish I hadn't started, but I didn't give up" and "Holy F***." Each one will have a 26.2 logo underneath.
That way there can be at least one honest marathon shirt/sticker out there. Training is the worst.
