I eat it left to right, and I eat very neatly, separating each kernel completely from the cob. Unless it's too delicious and then I just dive in and make a mess.

Lemonade/cookie stand. It was a serious entrepreneurial venture--I made almost $300 from it.

In honor of Paul Harvey's birthday. Have you ever forgot to tell someone “The rest of the story” and because we won't tell anyone, did you really forget? Sometimes at work, you need to leave off "the rest of the story" so a situation doesn't get blown out of proportion for the wrong reasons.

Good morning, Studedude, and thanks for covering for Karla today! We're glad to see you back to guest-hosting here; I know I'm not the only one who has thought a lot about you lately.
We're getting an advance hint of fall today: the overnight low last night was in the low 40s, and today's high is only forecast to be about 64. It's a brilliantly clear day, too, with all the things I love about autumn. Yay!

Bonus Question:
What was your first job where you got paid by someone other than your parents?
I worked in a meat market as a cashier. The owner paid me less than minimum wage, and a few years later, got caught by the Wage & Hours people for underpaying his help. He had to send me a make-up check, to make up the shortfall between what he paid me and the minimum wage at the time. It was a nice little surprise, and paid for a semester's worth of books in my second year of college.
Extra Credit Question:
In honor of Paul Harvey's birthday. Have you ever forgot to tell someone “The rest of the story” and because we won't tell anyone, did you really forget?
I don't think so; I usually have the opposite problem, and tell people more than they really want to know.
