i dont want to ever compile a list of ‘things i want to do before i die’ or ‘10 places i want to see before i die’. what happens after your done with your list? i guess its time for you to die.

watching the weather i saw that hurricane Katrina was downgraded to a ‘major storm’. i didnt think anything could be downgraded to major. major always seemed like a promotion or superlative.

father: hey billy. how did you do on that test? did you ace it?
son: no. i was downgraded to major failure.
