The word prompt for today is AWKWARD!! So let me just dive in. AWK usually the first sound I make in the morning, while having a good stretch.

Catfish… and other fairy tales

I've seen many disaster stories on the subject of "catfish". No, not the kind at the end of your cane pole or even the ones in the fishing pond.

Whole different meaning, with age.

Several things have come to pass. New meaning have appeared seemingly in-explicitly in my vocabulary. Remember the days when you said "I can't walk but I can drive!"
