Last night's adventure in Dreamland
I was sitting around the kitchen table with my parents and my sister, Rachel, who is 2 years older than me. We were having an argument because Mom and Dad were letting Rachel go to Diddy’s New Year’s Eve party that night at his apartment out in the country. However, they would not let me go.
…So, I went to the party anyway, and met up with Rachel. Diddy had been ignoring her,...
Throughout my career as a Library160 worksheet-grader, there has been one challenge that I have had to deal with on a daily basis. Though my job is to identify wrong answers, I have continually forced myself to fight the urge to correct the spelling and grammar of these (apparently) mis-educated college noobs.

IMPORTANT
We have just put out word that we will not be making a new Format album. Please understand this was a tough decision and we’re both upset about it. While we accept there will be false speculation as to why, understand that Sam and I remain extremely close and in fact are still passing the twin peaks box set back and forth in an attempt to...

Today I was leafing through the pages I had dog-eared and underlined in one of my favorite novels: Dave Eggers’ A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius.
Lately I’ve started to become more and more interested in the stories of entrepreneurs and small start-ups that have made an impact. There’s a certain sense of underdog excitement that surrounds a fresh idea, despite...

A response:
Tim, Suppose your trip ends up being far better or far worse than you envisioned in your novel.
