Umbrellishment

SS Cardiacs - "Age of Navigation"

I'm working on a small mass of knowledge not found in regular books. If you think of an encyclopedia less like a contirbution to science, less of a mountain of facts, and more like a friend to help you get through something, then you're beginning to understand The Encyclopedia Dan. It will contain answers, though maybe not the answers, to questions that I wish I could have read about before I finding out for myself.

the first day that you wear your glasses you might feel like you're shorter than you are. you might feel uglier than you are, you might get a headache.

file under: purchases: small
when you buy a dish rack from the dollar store, don't forget to also buy the tray that goes underneath it. that's also a dollar.

file under: growing up: firsts
if you need to know what french kissing is like, and how to do it, I would recommend thinking of the kiss as a sleep and your tongue as the dream. It's not right away, and it doesn't last the whole time.

file under: etiquette: tipping
you should tip movers. And not just with lemonade. 15-30$ should be fine.

file under: general questions
you're right where you should be. you're on the right track.

You can add your own in the comments. Though you're wrong if you think I know enough to make The Wikipedia Dan.
