...Oops...sorry about that last one, FlyBy just couldn't resist the temptation. One last note: St. Patty's is actually Tuesday, the 17th, so if someone tries to pinch you this weekend, consider it a rare opportunity to dish out an old-school Indian rug burn...
...universities or libraries. (One hopes that the recently deceased and uncommonly prolific John Updike may have taken the last route.) But such wishes aren't always carried out to the letter. Emily Dickinson, who saw fewer than a dozen poems published during her lifetime, instructed her sisters to burn all of her correspondence and verse - orders that were only half followed. Franz Kafka's directive to his friend Max Brod to destroy all of his work was completely ignored. Such literary insubordination gave us The Trial, The Castle and Amerika...

Given my penchant for booze and fatty foods, my daily burn target was 3,150 calories--an output that requires me to take a daily two- to three-mile walk and do an hour on the bike. Or I can just eat less...
