...envisioned--reading, playing some golf and, one by one, knocking off several odd jobs and improvements such as building a deck at his home. But then something he had not envisioned intruded on years of planning: he got bored. So he took a part-time job supervising tee times at a nearby golf club. "I just wanted something to do," Dillon explains. "I like to meet people and keep active." He later went back to work full time as a consultant to his old employer. "A lot of people in business haven't been honest with us," Dillon says, noting...

The doctor thought that it was just a virus or something, so we went with that, and I was taking Tylenol for the achiness. Except the shortness...
...bring a friend who is not planning on getting drunk and will take you home if necessary. My beef is with the fact that women have to do this. Why don’t guys who get pushy at parties after a couple of drinks have to tote along tee-totaling friends who will take them home before they end up taking advantage of some drunken girl? Why are women the ones who have to stay vigilant while men can do whatever the hell they want, at parties and bars, and other social arenas...
