~Wednesday~ I had a delicious dinner at The Pit this evening, where I enjoyed the: Chopped Barbecue – pit-cooked overnight, chopped and seasoned Eastern North Carolina style. $11.99 The food was good.

~Monday~ Two very unlikely things happened to me today, one of them probably as unlikely as winning the mega-lottery.
