Dear car,

On this occasion, the hour of your 10,000th mile, I am sorry you have been put through so much in your young life. I wish you a next 100,000 miles of no injuries!

Hopefully yours,

I ate some sort of shellfish here for the first time, mussels or clams or something, and they weren't that good. This sign, however, is so spectacular. and the view of the Sound was even better!

I made these dessert crepes, too. They were also awesome. Wish I made them more recently than 3.5 years ago.

Please think of this next time you see a City National Bank and marvel at how far they have fallen.

They have since remodeled this rug store and made it pseudo-modern and ugly. With a name like this, you must have the complimentary kitschy signage. C'mon.

This isn't there anymore, but I really liked it. It held so much meaning for the sign-enthusiast geographer in me.

I used to keep my books like I keep my closet, in rainbow order. It looked pretty awesome, but now I have exiled most my books to boxes in the attic 'cause I ain't got no space. Sad. On top of these books is THE Automatic Stapler.

This is my birthday cake. My grandmother makes it every year. It is unbelievably awesome.
