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.

Was Love Then
Was love then like a bag of assorted sweets passed around from which one might choose more than once? Some might sting the tongue, some invoke night perfume. Some had centers as bitter as gall, some blended honey and poison, some were quickly swallowed. And among the common bull's-eyes and peppermints a few rare ones; one or two with deadly needles at the heart, another that brought calm and gentle pleasure. Were his fingers closing on that one?
