I heard on NPR that some the Wisconsin quarters have been showing up with an extra leaf in the ear of corn. As coin collectors love this sort of thing, they are selling on Ebay for hundreds of dollars.

I didn’t think much of it until I got back, when I realized that I had three pristine straight-from-the-roll Wisconsin quarters that had been given to me as change from my twenty at Marble Slab Creamery at the San Antonio airport. One of these quarters (shown above) turned out to have the extra leaf.

I guess I can stop saving those bicentennial quarters. See you in Aruba.

This is the exit that Santa Ana must have used before the seige of Alamo.

Is this story related to this one? I surely hope not.

UPDATE: The blessed event in July is not mine, but my Graybar neighbors’. I was practicing passing off the baby to his parents.

Not that I’m running a deathblog, but I thought this was notable as well. Watch carefully though, all architects who make it over the age of 80 start wearing glasses like that.

I dropped everything that I was doing this morning when I found out that Johnny Carson had passed away. I got in my car, drove to Media Play and purchased “The Ultimate Johnny Carson Collection.” If anyone needs me, I’ll be holed up in my condo watching all seven hours in tribute to this personal idol.

At the recent North American International Auto Show, Dodge announced the 2006 Dodge Charger.

Someone is going to do it, I’m sure. I just wanted to see it first.

First Colin, now his son Michael. How do I feel about Michael Powell leaving the FCC?

MESSAGE REDACTED DUE TO DECENCY STANDARDS

Whew, feels good to finally get that off of my chest.
