the pathways were covered with majillions of these little guys today, making it interesting weaving a path with my bike that wouldn’t smoosh them.

As a kid, I was a voracious reader of science fiction. Anything by Clark. Anything by Asimov. Tolkein. Anything by Heinlein (also, I can’t believe my parents let me read Heinlein as a kid – I’m guessing they’d never read some of the pervier stuff…). And, of course, every Star Trek novel I could get my hands on. Later, I sucked in anything by Greg Bear. Gregory Benford. And on and on…

2010/06/03: Think of a favorite childhood sport, game, or activity. Make a nostalgic photo today. (@muffett68) #ds200
