The Friday Video: Sir Edmund Hillary
Sad news that Sir Edmund Hillary passed away yesterday, a rare person in today’s world who achieved much and yet remained a gentleman despite all the celebrity. It’s too bad there aren’t more people like him.
I also dedicate this video to Teri’s grandmother who passed away this week at the grand age of 92. Although I didn’t know her real well, she clearly shared a kindness and a good heart with Ed. May they both rest in peace.
Hello, My Name is Josh
I cringe every time I am asked to give my name in a restaurant, fast food joint etc. I know not why but there are very few people out there who hear the word “Paul” when I say my name. Much easier just to call myself Josh. Or Steve. Or … Recent names that have appeared on my receipts, starting with the one from today:
- Poul
- Pole
- Pawl
- Pull
