On my apple tree

I know they mean well but ..

....is it ok to carry a cane for the express purpose of whacking the shins of every young whippersnapper who offers me their seat on the bus?

Blessed be coffee....

...Blessed be its holy buzz.

Only A Dream, And 40 Years Late

It was a great relief to awaken today and realize that I was not actually signed up for a full load of undergraduate classes for which I was completely unprepared.
The irony may be that, as an undergraduate, I never really worried about being underprepared. I was - to be honest - a terrible undergrad student (could have used this dream about 40 years ago) and the results showed it.
Oh well, if I can't be a good example I can always be a dreadful warning ;-)
