Weekend Musings

August 26

PB&J. What is your preference for the "J"?

If I have to use the "J", it'll definitely be jelly not jam, preferably not grape. However, I actually prefer PB&H, the "H" being honey. Mmmmm, especially if you make the sandwich and let it sit for about 5 minutes while the honey seeps into the bread....

I don't eat them much anymore, though, because they make my teeth hurt, and well, they're a teensy bit fattening!

Another yummy thing is to spreak peanut butter on a flour tortilla, drizzle honey over it and roll it like a flauta. Mmmmmm...mmmm.

Coffee or Tea?

Tea, if I have to choose.

Pepsi or Coke?

With sugar, it's gotta be Pepsi. But I really don't care, since I almost always drink diet so I don't get sick to my stomach.

All expense paid week in Hawaii or Carribbean cruise?

Either one! I'm assuming it's all-expense-paid either way?
But I'd really like to do a cruise, preferably a windjammer cruise, that is, on a smaller boat, not a freakin' city on the sea!

PDA (electronic) or DayTimer (pen and paper)?

I had a PDA for about two years and I've gone back to paper calendars. I just like the mechanics of writing better.

Pluto Gets The Boot: A friend of mine's daughter called her up and said (paraphrasing), "My whole education was a farce. If Pluto isn't a planet, what other lies have we been told?". What was your first thought when you heard the news?

"Guess we'll be replacing all the astronomy books at work." And what was I cataloging yesterday? A kids' astronomy book. I jokingly asked if we should return it to the vendor because it's out of date. [not likely!]

To answer the other question, however, about education being a farce, check out these two books by James Loewen: Lies My Teacher Told Me (Hello! Helen Keller was a commie?!) and Lies Across America (Hello! "Custer" Battlefield? He lost, remember?).

And remember when dinosaurs didn't have feathers??
