Greetings:
I don’t know, but the surreptitiousness of the man’s amendment strikes me as a bit creepy. It’s almost like he didn’t want the Borg to become aware of it. Or, as my own father used to say, “Your mother needn’t be troubled with any of this.”
Also, and probably because of my thankfully short military career, I’m still a bit amazed that an automobile company called KIA has been so successful.
I won a KIA road bike in a raffle in 1985. I road that bike until 1999 and sold it to my brother for $200. Still think that was the lightest bike I ever had. The frame is still at my parent’s house, I think. Maybe I should get it.
I also drive a Kia minivan, 2007. Nice, but shit on gas. Seriously. Shitty gas mileage. Could have bought the Suburban my wife wanted.
Also, swim meet last year had ribbons down to 6th place. Because of seeding issues, Kid 4 won almost every heat he was in, but somehow ended up with a handful of 6th place ribbons. Kid 2 and 3 don’t want to swim club any more because seriously, who wants that? HS meets, it’s only 1-2-3 and they are good enough to get one in pretty much any event but diving, so why spend all weekend getting your ass kicked by a pool full of future Olympians when you can swim against maybe a club swimmer or two every week and have a goddamn chance?
Sorry guys, parent’s meeting last night. I’m grumpy.

Great one, McG; but in my head I’m hearing Porky Pig singing it, instead of Freddie.
Well, now so do I. “Participitipiticipeh…”
