How I saved a stamp
Having gotten my new MBR1000 router and USB760 modem up and running I immediately trashed the boxes and shipping stuff. When I finally got 'round to filling out Verizon's rebate form for the USB760 modem this morning I find the original bar code label off the box must be included to qualify for the $50.00 rebate. Right.

The Trespasser's Eyeshine
She put the butt end of the flashlight against her forehead, just above the space between her eyebrows. It was something she'd learned long ago about seeing at night. A light shined from there would reveal nothing of herself to a trespasser, and from that spot on her forehead a beam would go straight to the retinas and return to her own eyes the characteristic color of the trespasser's eyeshine. If it had eyes, of course, and if they were looking at her directly.
