Light Blogging

I haven't been writing much lately. I've been pretty busy with other things, including <gasp> frolicking in the beautiful springtime outdoors.

Speaking of which, you've probably heard Frank Robinson's line that "close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades." He's wrong. Close only counts in horseshoes if you're within six inches of the stake. And I suck at horseshoes, so that almost never happens.

I'm happy to say that close does count in bocce ball, though.

In other news, Josh found my Israel post Shocking! Outrageous! enough to prompt him to start blogging! I'll reply soon. ("Soon" in the bocce sense, not the horseshoe sense. Probably not before Wednesday. I'm working on a speech for Toastmasters…)
