Crabgrass by Tauhid Bondia for August 27, 2024

I honestly expected Kevin to mock him. Good for him to not

Should have taken up juggling! That always gets the girls!

Congratulations to Tauhid for his Reuben Award!

I found the faster I read, the more time I had to hone my yo-yo skills.

I never got past the first page of “The Art of the Yo.”

Yes! Congrats to Tauhid for his Reuben!!

Have you tried dirt biking?

Always wear your seat belt when speed reading.

Tommy Smothers turned his Yo-Yo prowess into a long and distinguished career and television series with his brother.

I learned to read very young through word recognition, so I could read very fast. I remember a kid in third grade noticing, and trying to read faster; but the only way he could was by skipping pages. Not sure why he was so competitive, it sure wasn’t helping him learn!

Being smart was popular with parents but not with classmates

ESPN Ocho should bring back Yo-Yo championships to TV

Yeah, pompous gloating is sooooo attractive.

I have read books cover to cover on the first reading (between 1 to 4 hours) before rereading at a more leisurely pace to garner more on the storyline, characters etc. Before any asks, I read the Order of the Phoenix on the launch night in just under 2.5 hours before rereading the book another 6 times in the next 8 months. What’s funny though, is that I can read any Xanth book in about 2 hours.

I am sure that miles will be jealous that I can be reading up to a dozen books at the same time and will know where I am at and what is happening after reading a sentence or two.

One thing about the Xanth series by Piers Anthony is that the books (38 at last known count) are full of puns, some of which will hit you days, weeks, months or years later.

No one likes a bragger, Miles.

I wonder where this is going. I thought Kevin was becoming a master of R.O.Q.
