1. Suds

    The suds
    Won't exit
    The drain.
    They pool
    Around the edges
    Of my feet
    And in between
    My toes.

    Go, I say!
    I push them forward
    And back
    To the left
    And to the right.
    But still
    They remain
    Clear in sight.

  2. Shampoo

    I still think of you in the shower
    Though I've changed my brand of shampoo.

    Memories of you reflecting in the suds
    Have taken on a different hue.

    You look kind and gentle and
    Well you never looked anything other.

    But, you also seem happy, at peace
    Possibly because you are free of me.

    Maybe I am better off too, I decide
    As the weight of you exits the drain.

  3. Blogs Tab

    Solo now has a Blogs tab sweetly nestled in between the Calendar and Wiki tabs.

    I am really happy Davidt added this shortcut as it was difficult to find the blogs prior to this, unless you were specifically looking for them.

    My guess is that more people will create blogs at Solo now. And without a doubt, more blogs will be discovered and read in the near future.

    Thanks David!

    Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1

    Chose this tablet instead of an iPad for many reasons:

    Less proprietary issues to contend with
    External SD card slot
    Compatibility with my Galaxy phone
    Android powered
    Compatible with all my Google accounts
    Easy Dropbox synching between devices
    Great price at $299.00 with 16GB and an extra 32 on SD card

  5. Conspicuous Candy

    In the United States, consumerism and holidays go hand in hand. And nothing displays conspicuous consumption better than the candy isles at large retail chains during the preceding weeks before CERTAIN upcoming holidays. Certain being the key word here. Because, as I will argue, not all holidays in celebration make ritual the consumption or gift giving of candy. Oh no, some blatantly deny these sweet treats to be in attendance. So who are the bouncers at the holiday doors? And what are the motives ...
