One of my favorite childhood memories was when my Dad took me to Sun Rexall Drugs to buy our annual kite. My first kite was a kelly green Hi-Flyer. It was a paper kite just like this one except green with white writing.It had " Playmate of the Clouds" across the top. We had to make a tail to keep in the air and it couldn't be too heavy or it would ruin the trajectory.

One year I talked Dad into a box kite. It never flew as well as the original one so we never bought another one.

Today in History
1668 1st horse race in America takes place
1913 Great Dayton Flood
1953 Salk Polio vaccine announced
1965 Martin Luther King Jr led 25,000 to state capitol in Montgomery, Al
1969 John & Yoko stage their 1st bed-in for peace (Amsterdam)







Once again we have John Lennon and Martin Luther King converging on the same day. All they were saying was "Give Peace A Chance".
Births
1839 William Bell Wait, US, educated the blind
1947 Elton John, [Reginald Kenneth Dwight], England, singer (Rocketman)
1966 Tom Glavine, Concord MA, pitcher (Atlanta Braves, Cy Young 1991)



William Bell took us a long way in educating the blind.

Clearly Sir Elton John is one of the best songwriters of our time. He is renowned not only as being knighted by Queen Elizabeth, but has made his mark in pop,rock, movie sountracks.

Happy Birthday to the Cy Young winner, Tom Glavine.

It seems like it got a little chilly last night. My apartment managed to drop down to 47 degrees. It is a bit harder to get out of bed and get ready when it is on the colder side, but the electric bill, or lack there of, is a site to behold. I'm predicting a bill under 13 dollars for the actual charge this month. It is a good thing since I have other things to save for right now.

A Friend In Need

Image
This weekend was a wonderful weekend for me to catch up with friends. Yesterday, I was able to see my best friend who, though it seems like months on end, I have not seen in a month. It was good to be able to sit down and talk again. Many times there are difficulties in our lives, but it is great to know that we are able to turn to others to ask for help. I'd like to thank her for being my friend through everything because that friendship means so much to me. It looks like this weekend’s rain will leave us for a short time to return again next weekend. Wasn't it great? It seemed like the perfect weather to cleanse and renew after so many months of dry, relentless weather. Three weekends in a row would be fantastic. I am thankful for the rain that we have received. The Yogurt Flavors: Chocolate Decadence, World Class Vanilla, Chocolate Banana (after 7 PM), Peanut Butter (After 7 PM), White Chocolate Raspberry and Vanilla Malt. Today, all UT Dallas Students get a free small yogur...
