Goodbye, Joe
Lookout Joe, you're comin' home. Old times were good times, Old times were good times. 'Lookout Joe' - Neil Young Strange having Neil's lyrics in my head as I think about my own feelings about the passing of Joe Flaherty. I was, once again, surfing pages on my phone after a long day of teaching and discovered that another icon from my youth was gone. I also wondered if this might have been a joke. April first had just passed, and I was ready for anything. But seriously, this? The death of one of my most beloved figures from my childhood? The loss of a man who was a keystone in one of the greatest comedy programs ever broadcast?

So You Want to Be A Pirate
Research: Put on your eyepatch, get your reliable telescope, or just use the zoom feature on your smartphone to set out on a mission to learn everything there is to know about pirates. Explore the depths of the internet, but use caution to avoid becoming lost in the sea of conspiracies concerning the haunting of abandoned ships by pirate spirits. Recall that not every treasure is made of gold and silver; occasionally, it's just a humorous pirate meme hidden deep within the internet. If you're feeling very daring, consider solving ancient pirate maps while donning a large pirate cap; the added difficulty will make you feel like a real swashbuckler searching for lost online riches. Just be cautious when it comes to internet thieves attempting to take your digital treasure!

Baja Be Thy Blast
Baja Be Thy Blast The light at dawn from the inside of a Taco Bell is something far too few have had the privilege of experiencing. Quite similar to the fashion in which, say, the stained glass windows of Cathedral of Barcelona catch each ray of glorious refracted sunlight and shower it down on the congregation, the way red-tinted sunlight bleeds through the fingerprint-scarred windows staring out into the parking lot can really only fill you with a sense of hope for the future. After all, if you're anywhere near a Taco Bell at dawn, customer or employee, all your dreams probably came true. The Teenager, who wears an employee hat and shirt, is about to sit at his little cushioned booth to begrudgingly take his thirty minutes. He would rather be in the back, tending to The Creature, but his bones ache and his muscles burn with the fire of minimum wage employment.
