I usually just throw them straight in the recycle bin, but now I don’t have to anymore.

This thing…
…is a self-balancing unicycle. It looks like a lot of fun!

When Kate was little her friends all called her Baby Cake because that was easier for them to either say or remember.
Coincidentally, Kate really loves cake.
Kate has inherited both my unnatural good looks, my disarming sense of humor, and my enormous sweet tooth.

Imagining her in this glorious scenario is not difficult.

Jerky anonymous internet commenters spurred the St. Petersburg Times to investigate and commemorate the quiet life of Neil Alan Smith.
Hit-and-run victim was quiet and dependable, co-workers say
I wish all obituaries were this long. You can’t sum up a life in a few sentences. Well…I guess you can, but it’s not ideal.
