Provided they manage to stay out of jail, I think they are gonna have a helluva time. 3. Trying to make friends in NYC is kinda like that too. 4. My passion for Mr. Gladwell actually predates my blog fixations. It all started with a review of a book called "The Tipping Point." I generally avoid celebrity blogs. Most of the stuff I like on his blog is archived from the New Yorker. I skim the surface of the blogosphere, actually. Sometime this year my project will be reading 100 new (to me) blogs. 4b. I kept interrupting my train of thought as I wrote this post. Will renumber forthwith. I'm pretty much for the more waking hours in my youth part of the equation. Too long a life, on my part, strikes me as disgraceful.<br /><br />molly: too funny. I may send them my old eyeglasses to help on that front.ergohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15370317979111315836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12518466.post-11434709011003568442007-01-10T12:06:00.000-05:002007-01-10T12:06:00.000-05:00My nephew got his AARP recruitment letter on his 5...My nephew got his AARP recruitment letter on his 5th birthday. Perhaps they should hire people who are NOT members to read the data, they might be able to see a bit better.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07377840249826881350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12518466.post-2312907601088918072007-01-10T11:11:00.000-05:002007-01-10T11:11:00.000-05:001.

The AARP's recruiting efforts start earlier and earlier each year, like retailers busting out Christmas decorations prior to Thanksgiving. <br /><br />2. Fair enough. I wouldn't mind being in Turkey either... provided it wasn't a "Midnight Express" third-world-prison kind of thing.<br /><br />3. This ain't your Midwestern small town where everyone eats at Ma's Diner no matter how nasty the Hollandaise sauce is. With all the dining options available in New York, there's no reason to tolerate lousy waffles and bad BLTs. To Hell with giving places second chances...<br /><br />4. You're so deep into the blogosphere, I fear you may never come back to the land of the living.<br /><br />4b. (Are you aware your numbering's off?) Getting enough sleep is key to living a long life. However, a "long life" means more years tacked on to your 70s, 80s, or 90s whereas staying up late means getting more waking hours in your teens, 20s, 30s, and 40s. I hardly think that's a decision at all...Groucho Castanedahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01511700694397609626noreply@blogger.com
