Give me some good beer, conversation, friends, and music and there is little that will bother me. I try to treat others as I wish to be treated and when I don't, I like to think I learn from my mistakes. I believe most people are trustworthy until proven otherwise. I'm a conversational snob. I have little tolerance for stupidity or rudeness. Common courtesy is one of the best traits one can have. I believe there is conversation that is inappropriate for the dinner table. I love running into people I used to know, but am always happier if I look cute when it happens. I think there would be much less ruckus in the world if brunch were a daily offering.

Things Thrown in the Potomac River

Every year volunteers gather to dredge and clean the mighty Potomac. And every year weird sh*t is found. This year's 17th annual Potomac River Watershed Cleanup was no exception. Over 186 tons of garbage were yanked from the river, among which were 43 shoes, 3 weed wackers, 3 tricycles, 2 pornos, 2 bongs and a full keg of beer, $50 in dinara (currency of Bosnia), a bowling pin, a drawer from a cash register, a boogie board (what?), the grill from a police cruiser, a Kawasaki motorcycle, a plastic horse head and a rocking horse, and a Civil War-era sword in its sheath. Makes you wonder what they don't find.
