100 tidbits? I don't know HOW to do tidbits. That looks hard.

I remember the day you were born. I was sick from school-- I often was-- and it's all anyone on the Today show was talking about. I asked my mom "So who is John Lennon anyway?" She stopped dead in her tracks and said "I am now officially old!" I remember it all like it was yesterday, and it most certainly was not.

Those were fun to read. Thanks for spending a day entertaining me for 60 seconds!

I did 50 last night, with 50 for today. Not too bad. (That means something, coming from me...)
