And speaking of tests, they are changing the U.S. citizenship test. A test run of the new test is being implemented just south of here in Tucson. I, for one, liked the old test. But truth be told, even though I apprenticed taught American Government (POLS 300) at the Uni, I got one question wrong. I can make a successful argument as to why my answer could be correct and that the citizenship test is wrong or misleading but they are changing the test so I win. Declared. Bye. 1436.

Coffee Cups 1437, 1438, and 1439

I subscribe to Backpacker magazine. Tony – It is a hiking magazine, sorry. It, along with Macworld, are my current quickreads. 1437.

I know how to build an ice fort/cave thing to survive extreme cold. This is in the vein of I know how to install hardwood flooring because I watch those home improvement shows. 1438.

But, if ever the situation arises and I need to tough out a quick closing snowstorm in Phoenix… 1439.
