OK, so I've given in! I've been inspired! I'm finally bored enough!
Well...maybe I just thought this would be a good way to keep in touch, practice my writing skills, and be 'published' immediately.

It's a lazy Sunday afternoon---2 p.m.---here in D.C. The weather is beautiful---74---and, of course, I've only stepped out-of-doors to pick up the Examiner from my front stoop. If you are wondering what the Examiner is, it's this new local/national newspaper that keeps arriving on my drive w/ the Post and Times (NY, not Wash.). I haven't subscribed to the paper, and, as a matter-of-fact, I toss the orange, plastic bag and put the paper in my recycling pile first thing. The question is: Why do they keep delivering it? Maybe they would like to keep their circulation up, or they see I'm a newspaper kinda' person and think I'll eventually read it and get hooked...D'ya think if I just let them pile up on the front-lawn they'll eventually get the hint and stop delivering it? Hmm...probably not before I receive a citation from the city. Oh well, I guess I'll just keep tossing the bag and recycling the paper!
