"IMHO" - In My Humble Opinion. Not sure of the origin of this acronym, but the idea is that this page is a topical catchall, some of which are opinions and rants: living in Texas, weeds :-).

Burma Shave Are you old enough to remember Burma Shave signs on the side of the highway? One of the fun things about the frequent trips my family made between Bay City, Michigan and West Branch or Detroit was waiting to see if any of the Burma Shave sign sets had changed.

I found material for these signs at www.nidlink.com/~dgookin/burma_shave/ (which turned into a spam site) and http://grantmcl.tripod.com/burmashave.html

Living in north central Texas is an experience. On the positive side are the yearlong barbecue season, sunshine, can-do attitudes, great high-tech business environment; on the negative side are fire ants, termites, heat, heat, heat, traffic on Central Expressway or LBJ. Did I mention heat? It's hot here. Sort of the complement of Minnesota winters where for three months you don't go out doors; here you don't go out doors for three summer months.

Weeds I have been trying to eradicate a weed that looks like a mutant clover. The mutant is winning more ground every year. Take a look at it and offer suggestions if you will.
