Hello!

Welcome to my blog... a place where I share my thoughts and observations of life and this crazy, wonderful world. I write my two cents about how I see things, but I would love to hear your comments and feedback. This could be a safe place for constructive dialogue and friendly discussion. I've always loved Thomas Jefferson's quote, which graces Clark Hall at my alma mater: "Here we are not afraid to follow truth wherever it may lead, nor to tolerate any error so long as reason is left free to combat it." So "come now, let us reason together" (Isaiah 1:18).

Got Milk? Seriously.

Today in the check-out line at Kroger I caught a glimpse of white out of the corner of my eye. When I turned to look at the check-out conveyor belt thing, I saw it was full of milk. Seriously. Full. The Indian (?) couple behind me had bought I don't know how many jugs of milk - gallons and half gallons all crowded on together. Enough to completely cover the check-out counter. I looked on in amazement.

"That's a lot of milk!" I said to the man. I'm sure he was impressed by my keen powers of observation. I just couldn't help myself.

"I drink it all," he replied with a chuckle.

"Oh, you'll be very strong!" I encouraged him. Then his wife (?) started talking to him in another language. I paid for my balloons and headed out into the rain.
