* We met Tim Gaynor from Reuters wire service today, and he told us these incredible stories about being a foreign correspondent. Almost makes a person want to get back to reporting. ...Almost.
* Don't waste your time being "kind of" happy. It's not worth it. Take a few risks and find something that really fits.
* Don't be that guy who waits until the lane disappears to try and merge when the signs have been telling you the lane ends for a mile and a half. Good grief.
* Nicer restaurants expect to make their money on drinks during Happy Hour, so they often will mark down a mini-menu's worth of items to better-than-reasonable prices. Ten bucks isn't bad for a normally sit-down meal.
* If you have to back up out of an intersection, make sure you've shifted back to "D" while you're waiting. The car won't go from park.
* Everyone has bad days.
* Reuters started in the 1850s with stock prices and carrier pigeons.
* "We want you to explain the U.S. to the world."
* Calls from mommies and old friends always are fantastic. Try it.
* Sad to say, even after college, tests do not go away.

I'm with you on the lane merging. I mean really, must we be so lazy as to ride the on ramp all the way to the end? Why not try to avoid accidents and simply get where you need to be? Of course, I tend to find the lane I know I need to be in for the duration of my trip and stay there the entire way, so maybe I'm the one with the problem.
