Ramble Strip

There's no stripping. (Sorry.) But there's rambling, usually in the area of science, politics, pop culture, signs that are irritatingly misspelled, and religion, or anything that happens to be on my mind at the time. I post on study breaks, so that I don't go insane. Insaaaaaaaane!

Things not to include in my obituary.

I was reading the newspaper this morning and as I skimmed the obituaries (I'm not old enough to read the obituaries first, in their entirety!) I saw something that I had to read twice to make sure I wasn't seeing things. One woman's obituary started out normally, and then said something like, "She was a member of blahdeblah church, founder of such-and-such theater group, and was a big fan of Clay Aiken." HUH? For the love of all that's good and pure, DO NOT include that in my obituary. PLEASE! Not anything similar either - "She was a student at something-or-other School of Medicine and she got all excited when a Boy Meets World marathon was on ABC Family." Sheesh.

There was also something entertaining in the police blotter - someone reported a burglary, and the only thing missing was about $15.00 in frozen dinners. Heh.
