They Deleted My Subtitle- Updated

“Fostering Apathy and Cynicism in a Generation that Needs More Hope”
I can’t imagine why that title wouldn’t appeal to a broad audience of casual weekend readers, but that’s just me.
(UPDATE: The subtitle is now restored and truthfully it looks a tad “big” over there.)
If that title doesn’t appeal to you, then just go play in a pile of leaf this weekend. When the leaves in your backyard are this big, you only need one or two.

This post was excellent - should I go tell you at Parenting? I love that you’re encouraging the moms to get out there and vote. It’s so easy to forget to do it or resign yourself to the fact that yes, you might have to put your kids somewhere before you go. It’s important.
Mrs. Miller has warbled and whistled her way into our hearts. The same lady that made our ears bleed last night has become a beloved friend - “Mommy, can we listen to that funny lady sing again?” Sorry - you’re not getting your CD back.
“Downtown” is absolutely hilarious. And “Strangers in the Night.”

Excellent post, I bow before your excellence.
I became an American last year, so this is my first year voting, it’s a big deal to me.
That’s a MONSTER leaf. Are you conducting some kind of experiment up there? Are you trying to take over the world with a race of Daring Young giants?

That is a honking big leaf! I would hate to see how big the rake is that you have to use on your lawn!

Dude! Is that leaf really that big, or did you shrink Laylee? I’m thinking it’s the latter.
The subtitle rocks.

That leaf is scaring me. What kind of fertilizer are you putting in the ground over there?

For some reason, that leaf makes me think of Jurassic Park… It’s that big!
I like the title too. I had to read it a few times, but I like it none the less. How dare they censor you…
