50 years ago, the Edmund Fitzgerald began her final voyage across Lake Superior. Less than 36 hours later she vanished.
Five decades later "Why?" is still a mystery.

I've been watching basketball for 35 years and I still don't know how pick and rolls are so effective.

This is the first time the kitten, who we've had for several months, has decided to nap in my lap.

"Can't hit the broadside of a barn" is particularly harsh trash talk. Cuz even the narrow side of a barn is pretty big. Would be pretty easy to hit. But nope, youre so bad you can't even hit the bigger side of the barn.

Those are the rules.

Making my way to London from Switzerland after finding out a dear friend from home had been diagnosed with cancer. I was emotionally, mentally, and physically ravaged. As I started putting coins in the kiosk to purchase the final ticket needed to get to my destination I realized I was short.
