One of the speakers, Secretary of the Treasury John W. Snyder, mentioned the fact that we were in a unique position because we had seen the atomic age born. Most of us wonder whether seeing it born is half as important as seeing it develop along the proper lines!
This is why Mr. Baruch’s work as [...]

You know you’ve been out of the country when you’re watching re-runs of the Colbert Show and find out Firefox 3 was released this month.

Better than listening to Mom bitch about her bowels.
More fun than an overdose of Milk of Magnesia.

I spoke of this publication earlier. Now ya’ll can order copies of it… cool, huh?
Samara, Costa Rica! Hey Craig, check out the address: Las Palmeras. Across from the horse field, down the road from the bridge, near the bus stop, where the howler monkeys climb on electric poles, on the road to Nosara, Samara, GTE, Costa Rica. (Did I leave anything out?)
Sometimes photography says it better than words. Sometimes? [...]
