Oh I love these! Every action, no matter how small, ripples throughout the universe and affects all. If you have any doubts about doing something, consider not doing it. Memory is time travel. Travel freely!

No, our dad used dirty corn, a lot of the time, which could explain my ruined sinuses (super sensitive to mildew). The burning corn didn't smell like popcorn or cornbread.

Not the stalks, not the cobs, not the ears - just kernels! Bushels and bushels of golden corn, burning in the basement stove. Yeah, I know, what a waste. Corn was down to a dollar or two a bushel at the

Ohhhh I feel your pain!!! Those old encyclopedias. Due to the glue and old paperstock, they do not recycle. Landfill 'em.... or.... some people tear them out, and print artwork on them!!! Here's a link
