You Know You’re Old When:

The mere sight of people in public upsets you.

You know you’re young when:  greeting people is funny.

Tuesday in Markham

You know, I’m usually not impressed with word manipulation, but this one’s got talent.

Monday

There’s been much talk about death in recent days;  Haiti, ‘Blue Monday’ and seeing the after effects of this > ( DEATH ) have all contributed to the ongoing discussion.

Talk radio, which I’ve been listening to a lot of lately, has informed me a great deal about Haiti’s less than desirable situation.  Minutes after hearing about the expected 100,000 deceased, my ears tuned in to an entirely different reality:  junior school morning announcements.  ”If someone is missing a size seven Reebok shoe, please pick it up at the office.  It may belong to someone named Aaron.”

(This post reminds me of a kid I met in Guatemala who’s notebook contained 5 full pages of dead body clip-art accompanied by text that read, “dead” and “dead dead dead.”)

This is Jake.
At the tender age of 16, he once paid a substantial amount of money for a double VIP lap dance. And besides my adolescent eyes being mesmerized for the first time, what sticks out in my mind the most is the perverted grins we shot each other through pairs of upturned legs.
