Shameful to quote wrong numbers to try to push an agenda.
Shameful indeed. I knew it! I knew Seattle had not passed Atlanta yet.

gardening and some other thoughts..

Posted 09-18-2014 at 08:21 PM by nooshb

today, the weather turned out nice, so i decided to do some gardening outside for the first time. trimming was the first order of business as the trees and shrubs had overgrown form all sides. One side of my house has this little passage under an arbor which was impossible to pass. Now it is nice and clear. I felt like putting a chair and table there to do some writing there some evenings..
With the arrival of fall, I feel so joyous. Summer literally kills me!!
I was at work last night...

Then they told them that the better they did, they would get some treat or reward...I forget what it was...

Anyway, suddenly, the 79 group scored in the 90s.

Which tells you something about IQ

Was rather puzzled by all this, until I quickly realized the article is from Huffington Post. A far Left mouthpiece. There is little analysis, though they touched on it very briefly, only a statement of one...

Thankful Thursday 9/18/14

Although I received my first rejection letter from the Nano Stories contest about not winning the $500 grand prize, my story will still be published in the magazine and I won a year subscription. I was bummed out about not winning the prize money, but I'm glad I'll still be published. I have to rewrite dialog for the Bartleby Snope's dialog contest and I was given until September 30th to do so. When I get back from vacation, I will because I think it'll inspire me.
