From a phone call I received today. This student is applying for admission to the College of Pharmacy where I work.
HIM: "How do I get my PCAT scores to you?"
ME: "You can send me a photocopy of your score report."
HIM: "Should I have one sent from the testing agency?"
ME: "Well, you CAN do that, but I just said that you could send me a photocopy."
HIM: "Are you sure that's okay?"
ME: "I wouldn't tell you the wrong thing to do, now, would I?"
I shudder for my future healthcare needs.

Anyone who has a chance should really go see The Bible, The Complete Word of God (Abridged) being performed at the Westwood Town Hall. It is being presented by Falcon Productions. You only have one more weekend to take advantage of this hilarious look at the Bible. I strongly recommend it for a night of fun!
The three cast members are great! And what can I say about the Prop and Costume handlers?? You guys ROCK!! I know you all will get a well deserved rest after next weekend. Congrats on a job well done!

Last night, Wendy & I (along with Ted, Tracy, Ginny, Julie, Carrie, Bob, Sharon, Dave, Mary, and several hundred others) saw THE LION KING, the tour company of the original Broadway show.
"Here comes Spring. Here comes Spring. Here comes Spring." This has been my mantra for the last 8 weeks or so since Cincinnati suffered through its worst winter in recent memory.
Winter has changed since I was a kid. Gone are the days of when we would get 18-20 inches of snow and our elementary school would be closed for 3 or 4 days in a row, practically demanding that all the kids on my street bundle up and begin to undertake our wintery tradition — creating tunnels in the snow. These tunnels were big enough for a brave young kid to crawl through, and we reinforced them with water which froze into ice to make them sturdy, though cave-ins were frequent. We especially enjoyed making tunnels in the snow piles left at the edges of the street after the snowplows came by. These tunnels could stretch the length of two or three houses, sometimes
