Today Is ...

One of my favorite snacks is Doritos Nacho corn chips dipped in chocolate pudding, which I will enjoy today.

When I was in sixth grade (1972-73; age 11 or 12), I first ate it in the cafeteria of Bayview Elementary School (West Islip, Long Island, New York) in an attempt to make two girls disgusted. They didn't care all that much, and I discovered that I really like it. I have eaten it many times over the years since then.

My dad played the saxophone in the band as a student at the University of Pennsylvania in the 1950s. (He once told me on the sly that he wasn't able to play it very well. His motivation was to travel with the football team to many different universities in hopes of meeting many different women. He told me that he would march in the marching band but just pretended to play.)

I used to write with my dark brown fountain pen in the 1980s. I still have it somewhere, but I don't use it anymore. It is a modern fountain pen, meaning the ink is contained in a plastic, disposable receptacle within the pen.
