The philosopher might say it stands for "the beauty that's inside." Dancers take a more practical approach and suggest it means "these black tights itch." Psychiatrists recognize it as a common diagnosis: "Tranquil, but totally insane." And children say it means "this broccoli tastes icky!" Some maintain that it describes their situation "trapped between two idiots." While the dyslexic think it is a reminder to "bring the trashcans in," the hypochondriac sees it as advice: "Tender back? Take ibuprofen." The self conscious yell it out: "take back that insult," and of course the academician contends that "truth brings transformational independence!"
As time passes I am sure that it will take on even more meaning and its realm of influence will increase globally. However, we all know that it describes our family. TBTI!

Thanksgiving in Tucson: Great people. Great food. Great country.

It was such a treat to have everyone home for those days of fun and frivolity: Knockout was a real winner. Badmitton was a hit. Swimming was chilling. Boggle was humbling (especially when playing with Megan and Craig).
