Blue eyed people smarter. Brown eyed people have better reaction time. So basically, blue eyed people smart enough to wait for the WALK sign at the intersection and everyone else tries to be quicker than the oncoming traffic.

You know, I always said – Don’t get married in New Jersey – someone’s gonna get hurt.
Manic Monday
Busy day around here today… We were all up by 6 – left for Lily’s school by 7:30 – made it to Diane and Leo’s 8:30a dr. appt. by 8:20. Got to the office by 9:15 – left to pick Lily up at school and have lunch at 11:15 – and just arrived back here at the office at 12:45.
First day of school for many Florida counties today. The bus stops were filled with bright shiney faces, eager to get on with their education. I’ve noticed the trend of parents waiting with the kids at the bus stops nowadays. That sure wasn’t the case when I waited for the bus. We pretty much did everything we could to get out of the house without waking anyone for fear of getting caught taking a cup of cereal and a spoon with us! But that’s a different story entirely.
I did see a STUDENT DRIVER magnet on a car pulling out of a high school on one of my trips today. That’s got to scare you…first day of school…student driver.
Let’s see…anything worth commenting on….not really. It’s hot here today. I think the record is 96 and we are supposed to be 95 by tomorrow. The mornings have been ok – we are getting an easterly breeze – probably thanks to Dean – that is bringing in some drier air. But by 10:30am that’s history.
Our neighbor kid broke his hip. That’s rough. You rarily hear about 16 year olds breaking hips. Guess he won’t be banging on my door wanting to mow my yard the rest of the summer….slacker. Back in my day, if you broke a hip – that just meant when your father volunteered to you mow some yard that hadn’t been touched for 3 weeks, your brother was drafted to help you. And you still had to cut him in on the $10 you made. The brother too. I know…that’s an exaggeration. We didn’t make ten bucks after we paid for the gas for the mower.
