Need some great advice to write in a graduation card? You need the right place to cogitate before taking pen to paper! Driving the car often helps me [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m a native Californian. It&#8217;s a pretty cool state. We have beaches, mountains, movie stars. Lots of sunshine. And avocados! I didn&#8217;t actually think too much about what&#8217;s also known as the &#8220;alligator pear&#8221; and the &#8220;fertility fruit&#8221; until I moved to SoCal and saw the trees planted all over the place. In front yards, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I start out my mornings (sometimes in the dark) looking at these steps. It&#8217;s a bit hard to tell from this picture, but it&#8217;s four steep flights that snake between houses to take you to the next street (I live in a hilly location). Once you cross that street above, there is yet another set [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[First off, there are no &#8220;woods&#8221; in my neck of the woods. I live in SoCal. We have palm trees, citrus trees, and sand. Which can make our holidays different than in other parts of the country. Believe it or not, it can get chilly here (into the 40s and sometimes 30s on winter nights!), [...]]]></description>

This year, as usual, I crossed my fingers and headed out to see Daniel Craig in the latest Bond film. I&#8217;m usually pretty carefree about [...]]]></description>

The chorus begins with the words&#8221;It started with a whisper&#8221; and that line pretty much sums up something that happened to me last year. Right after SEAL Team 6 became (more) famous, I saw a photo of a real SEAL taken in 2007 that accompanied a [...]]]></description>

Sometimes it&#8217;s been handed down and sometimes people develop their own interests. Then there&#8217;s the people who want really weird stuff, like those you see on Oddities San Francisco, which follows the store Loved to Death. I [...]]]></description>

She needs to remain calm (note her white-eyed look at that) and would she please read to him from the emergency procedures manual. This beautiful young [...]]]></description>

Then I started to really ruminate on the comparison and I found the two activities actually do have a lot in common. Here&#8217;s what I mean. 1. Nobody [...]]]></description>
