You Changed Thumbs Forever

It was 20 years ago today that the first text message was sent. 

It was Dec. 3, 1992, and Neil Papworth, an engineer working in the UK, sent the world's first short message service or SMS. 

It read "Merry Christmas." 

Enjoy the next year of your texting ability because when texting hits 21, it will be so drunk that none of your messages will be legible.

Funny, In Retrospect

Still no school in Jersey tho...

Keep The Rattail

I took this photo yesterday and thought my friend Kheli would appreciate it. Here's the conversation that ensued...

For you on this day


What is Dan doing up in PA?


That's right up there with some all time rattailz!


That's nothing compared to the rattail my son is going to have.


Hopefully he already has one.


Well, scientifically, I don't think there is any way he can't have one.


Scientifically yes! At birth, cut the umbilical cord, keep the rattail.

Kheli is pregnant and is due on Christmas. She may name her son Jesus.
