December, 2008
You associate sunshine with summer. At least, I do. Say the word “summer” near me, and I think of sunshine and shorts and sandals and a bunch of other words that begin with S.
Fall (or autumn, for the more snooty reader) brings about different imagery. Leaves changing colour, cooler weather. sweaters (not coats, but maybe jackets), and more dreary skies.
Well, the leaves haven’t changed yet. And, yeah, strictly speaking we haven’t hit fall yet. But this sure as hell ain’t summer anymore. And it kinda sucks.
If you’re reading this, comment please, and tell me 3 things you enjoy about fall, so I can improve my mood about the inevitable. I’m not following the wisdom of the serenity prayer very well right now.

Come fall I have to mow less.
Come fall I enjoy the new TV season.
Come fall I begin my anticipation of the next summer.
The purpose of fall is to give us time to reflect on the fun had over the summer. And, with the dreary wet weather it prepares us to better accept winter.
If not for the manure, the roses would be less beautiful.

Fall means it won’t be 110F during the day and 85F at night.
The mowing season only has 2 more months.
I’ll actually be able to enjoy being outdoors for the next 7-8 months.

Experience is that marvelous thing that enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.

The dead might as well try to speak to the living as the old to the young.

Youth would be an ideal state if it came a little later in life.

Always be nice to those younger than you, because they are the ones who will be writing about you.

What we become depends on what we read after all of the professors have finished with us. The greatest university of all is a collection of books.

If you watch a game, it’s fun. If you play at it, it’s recreation. If you work at it, it’s golf.

Lack of money is no obstacle. Lack of an idea is an obstacle.
