  1. as always, very insightful and thought provoking.
    However,I must admit I keep reading the bit about brevity over and over again because it cracks me up! I know… I’m weird. ;^)

  2. Breaking open coconuts: use a sharp screwdriver or icepick to drive holes in two of the little eyes. Pour out the water and drink it.

    Bake the coconut at 350 for 20 minutes. When it comes out and cools a bit, you can give it a good whack with a hammer and it will split right open and the meat will pop right off the husk.

    This handy hint brought to you by the Cal Poly San Luis Obispo Tissue Culture lab – school motto “Learn By Doing.”

    You’re welcome.

  3. I think that the expression is about ‘attracting’ flies, which is even ickier than catching them………. (Unless you are catching them to keep them for some unknown and unimagineable reason, then that’s icky.) Good thing that there are other, more pleasant reasons for honey to exist than to attract flies. Your Grandfather always used to say that honey was just refined sap, which is why I call your Dad ‘Honey’,- but that’s an old joke, right?

  4. Brilliant, as usual.

    “…that most of the things I wanted when I was 20 wouldn’t do a thing for me at 35.”

    Amen to that!
