Watching our postal service deliver my Christmas presents with USPS Track and Confirm cheers me no end. Imagine Santa and the eight tiny reindeer being tracked across the Big Board in the War Room.
Plugged the old "Dr. Strangelove" VHS into the player. Spread out the road atlas. Piled up the tiny packages like colored cubes in the game of Risk. Receiving status and location updates online. Staying hydrated. Taking good care of the precious bodily fluids.
My dad reports he was weighed today. His reports aren't reliable, but he claims he weighs 165.9 pounds including his wheelchair. Dad would not appreciate a comparison to Peter Sellers' performance.
