Threepeat

1. It’s possible to approach Saturday evening with a slightly more carefree attitude because you managed to get something in the outgoing mail just before the final weekend pickup.

2. I’ve seen no evidence that Spokane’s potholes reduce speeding.

3. Ever been stumped by an abbreviation that comes from someone else’s subculture?

I bumped into a couple who each happen to be church leaders in their mainline denomination. They are friends of mine. So I asked about their adult daughters and a while later one of them used the expression “PK.” I was reasonably sure that we weren’t suddenly talking about hockey (where the shorthanded team refers to a penalty kill as “PK”). Eventually, context was the key. It means “pastor’s kids.”
