Evanston: 47; view from a wheelchair; taxed

​A study reported in the NY TIMES suggests that those who exercise regularly for decades may have bodies thirty  years younger than their ages.
​I may be 47 instead of 77.
​Draw your own conclusions about yourselves.

​Michael’s accident is far too high a price to broaden my understanding, but it has.

​South Carolina taxes boats that have been in the state for more than half a calendar year, regardless of where they are registered.
​I got my tax bill a few days ago.  $79.52.  
​Small is beautiful in many ways.
