I'm Greg McBride, senior financial analyst with Bankrate.com, and here is your weekly look at yields on certificates of deposit.
The onset of the Fed's latest stimulus effort, dubbed QE3, is not a favorable development for savers. The Federal Reserve's goal of pushing interest rates lower will translate into even lower returns for savers, and this week provided a glimpse of that. Yields on maturities from 3 years through 5 years each moved lower, resetting record lows.
The average 3-year CD yield is now 0.6 percent, while the 4-year and 5-year CD yields hit 0.79 percent and 0.98 percent, respectively. Larger jumbo CDs – those requiring initial deposits of at least $100,000 – were also lower. The average 3-year and 4-year jumbo CD yields ticked lower to 0.63 percent and 0.81 percent, respectively.
Expect more of the same in the weeks and months ahead as the open-ended nature of the Fed's QE3 program continues to be a drag on savings rates.
However, despite the record low interest rate environment, it is still important to shop around. To find the best yielding cash investments – from online savings accounts and money market accounts to CDs, check out the free search engine at Bankrate.com.

Bath Salts: Utica Suffers From Fourth-of-July Batshit Spree
Shortly after we reported on the spread of bath salts in Utica, at least three more incidents involving the designer drug took place on the Fourth of July.
The first happened around 1:45 p.m. on Wednesday. Cops got a call that an "emotionally disturbed man" had locked himself inside a bathroom and wouldn't come out. Turns out, the 30-year-old was on bath salts and armed with a knife. He threatened cops, telling them to back off, until they coaxed him out of the bathroom. He was then handcuffed and taken to the hospital for a mental health evaluation.
Second, around 9:45 p.m, a man called the cops, claiming that someone was burgling his apartment. He then told police: "he was unsure if he was being burglarized or if there were squirrels in his house."
The officer then learned that the squirrel man was the same guy who was involved in a bath salts incident Tuesday night, "in which he believed that someone was chasing him." He called the cops later that night, again claiming that someone was in his house. They went back to his home and didn't find anyone. He said he hadn't used bath salts in several days and was just feeling side effects.

Last, Utica cops found a man in a wooded area right before midnight. He was on the ground and yelling for help, claiming that he was paralyzed from the waist down. Apparently, he had just done bath salts. Law enforcement agents took him to a hospital.

Mostly upper class white kids. Pretty accepting white kids, but a bunch of white kids nonetheless.
Most people are rich, most people are white, and most people are very liberal. That being said, "most" is not all. As a rich, white, liberal person, I love Tulane and I easily make friends from similar socioeconomic backgrounds, but Tulane is a very diverse group of rich white people. Students come from all over the world, there is plenty of international students coming from Asia, Australia, Europe, South America, and Africa, and basically every American state. There is also a very prominent Jewish community at Tulane, hence the nickname "Jewlane".
There are a lot of international students. Tulane has students from many many countries around the world, and it is definitely something they brag about often. However, there are definitely many more white students than any others. In terms of racial diversity, it is very lacking. Many of the students are from wealthier families as well, and the Jewish community is huge.
it's a LOT of snotty rich northerners, not many people from the south. not many black people either. All the asians stick together. People are very liberal compared to what I'm used to coming from a prep school in the south, and I was fairly liberal compared to most of my peers back home
What Tulane lacks in racial diversity, it makes up for in other ways. We are the most geographically diverse school in the country, and have many international students. There is a decent amount of religious diversity, although the majority of students are either Jewish or Christian. Tulane is a pretty liberal school, but there is still a decent amount of conservatives here as well.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Does Tulane have a lot of diversity? The way you answer this question all depends on your past experiences. Naturally, if you went to an elitist private academy with less than a handful of minorities enrolled, you'll get here and see a couple of African Americans and Indian students and will be amazed at the amount of diversity. However, if you went to an inner city high school or a public high school where the white population was slowly becoming a minority, you'll come to Tulane and think this is the largest white population at a school you've seen in a long time. After all, the white population is 80 percent of the total.
Racially and ethnically, this school is lacking on diversity. There are a lot of strongly represented cultural organizations, but the numbers are small. IATU, Hillel, and the Catholic Center constantly advertise activities that their clubs are putting on each week; joining these groups, or at least going to one activity, will help you better understand different cultures and religions. It's also a good way to meet new people in the fall semester. The diversity of Tulane comes from the amount of kids hailing from all over the country. You'll have friends that live in California and Manhattan, and that in itself is somewhat diverse. Outside of the Tulane bubble, there is a city that is full of diversity and culture. New Orleans is predominantly African American, and there is also a notable population of Caucasians, Cajuns, and Creoles, among others. It is a type of diversity that is only found in this part of the country, and in a sense, city itself makes up for Tulane's lack of diversity.

A cute young gardener is hard at work inside his greenhouse, tending to his plants. He looks up from his labouring to see a good-looking older bad boy staring at him through the glass. Right before his very eyes, the bad boy unzips his pants, pulling out his large, thick cock and beginning to stroke it! Speechless, the young gardener can only beckon for the man to join him in the greenery. Hidden from the piercing gaze of his co-workers, the gardener gets on his knees and swallows the stiff dick, choking on hard cock. He bends over and lets the bad boy do whatever filthy things he wants to his tight anus, including hard sodomy.

2 process was plenty. Like I said, when running in debug mode, it tends
to 'work' since memory is initialized to \0 and we fall through. In an
optimized build, looking at the mtt results it looks like it segfaults
about 10% of the time.
But if you apply the patch I sent, it will tell you when an invaild
lookup happens, which should be every time it runs.

IRVING, Texas -- Ryan Palmer sure knows how to break up the grind of playing most weeks on the PGA Tour.
On Thursday, the Colleyville, Texas, resident continued a tradition that is now entering its fourth year: He let his caddie, James Edmondson, pick every club and followed his every instruction.
"It was totally up to him," Palmer said. "I just did the swinging."
The formula worked in the opening round of the HP Byron Nelson Championship, as Palmer shot a 3-under 67, tying him with seven others for fifth on the leaderboard, two shots behind Peter Hanson.
Palmer said the idea came to him when he made just one of seven cuts a few years back, but it didn't really stick until the 2011 stop at the home of the Nelson, TPC Four Seasons Resort and Club Las Colinas. That year, with Edmondson doing the strategic work, Palmer finished second, losing out to Keegan Bradley in a playoff.
Since implementing his unusual plan, Palmer has made the cut every year at the Nelson and has shot par or better in eight out of 13 rounds, with two top-10 finishes. Palmer credits the fact that Edmondson fades the ball as giving him better sight lines to the course, making him a great guide.
For 37-year-old Edmondson, the Nelson is the only tournament each year where he enjoys final say. Palmer said they tried it in another event, "and that lasted about six holes."
Edmondson and Palmer disagreed on just one shot Thursday. Palmer's ball was in the rough on the par-4 sixth, and he wasn't sure whether the club Edmondson pulled was the right one. It wasn't.
"I drove the car off the cliff," Edmondson said. "But he was still in the car with me."
Player and caddie have been in that car together for 12 years, a rarity on the PGA Tour. Edmondson said he can count on one hand the number of verbal disagreements the two have had on or off the course.
"I have more arguments with my wife," Edmondson said.
The caddie was selling software for a real estate company in Las Vegas in 2002 when Palmer, a buddy he knew from the mini-tours, called and asked him to join him for PGA Tour qualifying school. Palmer got his card for what was then called the Nationwide Tour, won a tournament early in his first season and has managed to keep his PGA Tour card ever since. And Edmondson has been the guy on the bag, too.
"He's a former player, and that makes the difference," said Palmer, who is 29th in the FedEx Cup standings with four top-10 finishes this season. "Some guys get out here [on Tour] and get a veteran caddie and end up running through six of them. My advice is to pick a friend that plays and have fun."
That's what the duo is doing. And the two were hoping to add even more spice to the week by playing a few rounds with former Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel. Palmer, a former Aggie, had a charity event in College Station, and Manziel was scheduled to join him. But the quarterback had to back out because of commitments with the Cleveland Browns, who drafted him at No. 22 last Thursday.
The plan was for Manziel to then play with Palmer in Wednesday's Pro-Am, but the quarterback is in Cleveland all week. Palmer has never met Manziel, but he asked his agent to put something together because he thought it would be enjoyable.
"It was going to be a chance to get to know him myself," Palmer said. "You read about him, but that's not the same thing. It was awesome watching him play. Maybe I'll get a chance down the road."
He might also get a chance to get back into contention at one of two tournaments he and Edmondson consider hometown events. Palmer lives in Colleyville, a suburb of Dallas, and Edmonson lives in North Richland Hills, not far from Fort Worth. Both are members at Colonial, where they share the course record of 62. Between the two of them, they've played Colonial more than 300 times.
"I could play it blindfolded," Palmer said. "Sometimes I don't even look at the yardages."
He didn't look at them at the Nelson on Thursday, either, and that worked out pretty well.
"I putted better, and that's what I need to do," said Palmer, who has three wins in his 11-year PGA Tour career. "I'm playing well. I just have to keep it going. We have to keep it going."
Exactly. This one is as much on Edmondson as it is on Palmer. And that's how the duo likes it.

Alec Ross served as former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's senior advisor for innovation. During that role, he earned unique insight into the changing nature of technology. In his new book, "The Industries of the Future," Ross not only lays out the key industries that will shape the 21st century, but also provides the geopolitical, cultural and generational contexts out of which they are emerging. Berggruen Institute's Dawn Nakagawa sat down with Ross to discuss the book.
When a company claims that it uses scientific evidence to build personalized prevention plans, it often means its experts picked risk factors and weight loss strategies from the scientific literature. It does not mean that the "blending," the design of these personalized plans, is supported by scientific evidence.
Does the rise of Trump herald an era of home-grown fascism? Human intelligence and vast quantities of metadata seem ill-equipped to help forecast geopolitical events at this scale. Despite decades of sophisticated political science and game theorizing, the truth is that we are very bad at anticipating great historic turns. Why?

How to cook up a kudzu storm ...
Published: Sunday, June 29, 1997 at 3:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, June 29, 1997 at 12:00 a.m.
Kitchen offerings from Edith and Henry Edwards:
''Green Gold'' Kudzu Snack Chips
(similar to potato chips)
Use 2- to 3-inch leaves.
Gather leaves in the cool evening of summer. Place them in plastic bag in refrigerator. Approximately 2 to 3 hours before you wish to eat them, make a tempura batter for coating leaves.
Authentic Japanese Batter 1 egg (broken) into a 1-cup measure Fill with cold water from spigot to make a full cup of liquid Stir only, do not beat! Mix together with 1 cup plain or self-rising flour. Chill in refrigerator. Any lumps will dissolve
Frying the leaves Use a narrow cooker, like a ''Fry-Daddy Jr.'' Pour oil in container to line suggested, and heat to 350-375 degrees. Place two bowls on counter, one of iced water and one of tempura batter. Now, you are ready to take chilled green kudzu leaves out of refrigerator. Use a slotted spoon or flat strainer to handle the chips. Dip one leaf into iced water, let drain, then dip into tempura batter, drain a little, then put in hot oil. Cook about 5 seconds, turn over with spoon, let cook 5 seconds, remove from the oil and drain on toweling. The secret to delicious, crisp chips is the chilled batter. You can purchase tempura batter ingredients at natural food or grocery stores. Also, you can use these batters for deep-fried raw vegetables, a Japanese custom. You may want to adjust these recipes to suit your taste.
Kudzu Quiche Pick a colander full of medium-sized 2-inch leaves of kudzu. Rinse under tap water. Cover leaves with water, bring to a boil, then simmer for one minute. Strain the liquid and press out the moisture from leaves before using in rest of recipe. Save liquid to apply to house plants as fertilizer. Leaves can be used similarly as cooked spinach in other recipes. Quiche ingredients: 2 cups loose kudzu leaves cooked; 1 cup Bisquik mix ½ cup chopped onion ½ cup chopped green pepper 1 cup Parmesan cheese ½ tsp. dried marjoram dash pepper 1 clove garlic, chopped (optional) ½ cup peanut or canola oil 4 regular sized eggs or equivalent 1/3 to ½ cup milk (adjust to suit) Thoroughly stir ingredients together, using a blender, but be careful not to over-blend. Pour into two round quiche dishes (or use 9x13 and 4x6 glassed greased pan for an appetizer that serves 30 or use a large cookie sheet with sides, which when cut serves 50-60 persons). Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes, or until nicely browned. Let cool, then cut into servings.

This book originated as lectures for a course on political philosophy that Rawls taught regularly at Harvard in the 1980s. In time the lectures became a restatement of his theory of justice as fairness, revised in light of his more recent papers and his treatise Political Liberalism (1993). As Rawls writes in the preface, the restatement presents "in one place an account of justice as fairness as I now see it, drawing on all [my previous] works." He offers a broad overview of his main lines of thought and also explores specific issues never before addressed in any of his writings.
Rawls is well aware that since the publication of A Theory of Justice in 1971, American society has moved farther away from the idea of justice as fairness. Yet his ideas retain their power and relevance to debates in a pluralistic society about the meaning and theoretical viability of liberalism. This book demonstrates that moral clarity can be achieved even when a collective commitment to justice is uncertain.

Challenging but Enlightening Read In 1971 John Rawls wrote a book called A Theory of Justice that caused quite a stir. Thirty years later he wrote Justice as Fairness that reiterated the main themes of his prior work while also expanding upon, clarifying, and defending his carefully crafted political philosophy (a concept of justice that works in a pluralistic society). The subject of "justice" is a complex one. Rawls draws upon not just his previous writings, but also his years of teaching at Harvard to develop this dense discussion on justice as fairness. He explains that, in his opinion, "the most reasonable principles of justice are those that would be the object of mutual agreement by persons under fair conditions." Whether you agree with the views presented in Justice as Fairness or take a different stance, it is an important book to explore if you are interested in law and/or philosophy. However, it is a difficult read, even if these are topics you are familiar with. If you are not, you will likely find yourself a bit lost. Have you read Trial by Fire and Water: The Medieval Judicial Ordeal?

The four-piece headlines at REVLIS (712 Central SE) on Tuesday, Dec. 14. Show starts at 6 p.m. and is opened by The Ill Motion, Emergency Ahead and Doomed to Exist.

The Scrams single-handedly fill a long-gaping hole in our local scene: a trashy garage rock combo with frantic hooks and sonic mayhem. "La Llorona" is a far cry from the muy triste folk song of the same name. This original forsakes the sadness of the ghostly mother forlornly searching for the children she drowned when jilted by her lover. It depicts a tortured soul consumed with vengeful fury and indelibly marks the band as New Mexico home boys. The Scrams' rock and roll is as hot as a bowl of straight green chile with no tortilla on the side. (CA)

Neem Seed Oil is wonderful, it tighten the skin on my face (which was a welcome surprise). Neem works great on my toe nails and fingernails, it makes them look clean and white under the nails.Neem also works on healing wounds, and a little goes a long way. The only thing I don't like is the smell, however I mixed in some lavender, and it helped quite a bit. The smell does not stick around for very long, and you can apply a good smelling lotion or crème over it, works like a charm.

|Reviews for Airship Down and the Mountains of Madness
| x-mariaa chapter 31 . 3/12
This story was gorgeously written. I came in here expecting a Sokkla romance, but this was so much better!
I was genuinely creept out and scared in certain parts of the story, and the anticipation had me at the edge of my seat. Seriously, I loved it.
I'm so glad to see there's a sequel & I'll be reading it ASAP. Thank you for taking the time to write this because truly, it was highly enjoyable and managed to brighten my spirits if only temporarily.
| Acastus chapter 30 . 3/21/2015
Awesome story, really enjoyed it, thanks. Both Sokka and Azula are deliciously in character. If I can hear the voice actors in my head as I read the dialog I know the author has nailed it. Well done.
Before this story I'd never read any Lovecraft. Thanks to you I am now plowing through and enjoying it immensely. I like your adaptation and will have some additional comments on this with your sequel.
You admirably resist getting Sokka and Azula too involved too early, waiting, in fact until the sequel. That shows discipline and restraint, qualities all too rare in the overwhelming majority of fanfic authors. Azula's goodbye here was perfect, as was Sokka's reaction.
Now, here comes the left handed compliment. I have to say that the story was so good I even got over the implausibility of the premise. Why was the airship getting tested at the south pole? How did Sokka miraculously survive the fall? Of course the only answer to these questions is because if these things didn't happen we wouldn't have the story! We wouldn't get Sokka and Azula isolated somewhere cold where they have to snuggle up fast! But hey, all is forgiven when the rest is this good.
| PrimusNobility chapter 1 . 2/6/2015
Simply brilliant
| DragonTurtle3 chapter 31 . 1/31/2015
I'm really curious as to how the experience in your story will sync up with the fantastic mental breakdown in the original series. The part where she's less concerned with vengeance and reclamation of her glory, and moreso with fading into irrelevance for the sake of humanity, shows a lot of promise.
Have you read "The Search?" Will you be including any elements from it?
| DragonTurtle3 chapter 30 . 1/31/2015
I've never heard of Jack London. What elements of this story come from him?
| DragonTurtle3 chapter 26 . 1/31/2015
It seems to me that revelations like the history of the Old Ones isn't nearly as traumatizing when one is already well acquainted with the truth that humanity, and everything we've done and hold, gestated out of a proteobacteria.
| DragonTurtle3 chapter 25 . 1/31/2015
I wonder if Azula's lack of firebending has anything to do with her mind link (with what I'm guessing was a Shoggoth). Not that these things are somehow magically blocking it, but in how bending seems tied to mentality. It's like when Zuko went into a healing coma in Ba Sing Se, or lost his firebending when he abandoned the Fire Nation and joined Aang.
| DragonTurtle3 chapter 15 . 1/31/2015
Coming from Azula, and knowing what she does concerning 'her way,' that last parted sounded like more of a threat than a promise.
| DragonTurtle3 chapter 11 . 1/31/2015
What very impressive detail is the reference to "polar dogs." That species only showed up ONCE, in "The Boy in the Iceberg." A mistake that could have easily been made, which I wouldn't have jumped on too much, was referencing a "polar bear dog" as a work animal. Korra was the first one in recorded history to ever domesticate one. Good researching on your part.
| DragonTurtle3 chapter 8 . 1/31/2015
That ending gives an a great opportunity for these two to bond. Azula's sense of humor is... dark, to say the least. As things get worse and worse, Sokka's jokes will get meaner and meaner, but that will make it easier for these two to form a connection.
| DragonTurtle3 chapter 6 . 1/31/2015
"'Oh, please don't leave,' she said, holding her the back of her hand to her forehead."
I'm a bit confused. What that first part suppose to be sarcasm or something? I'd imagine it would, given that Azula has a sharp wit, and that the rest of the paragraph is her saying she'll be fine. But there isn't any transition or narration indicating such. Also, the first "her" isn't needed.
| DragonTurtle3 chapter 4 . 1/31/2015
"Sleepiness was now was the only thing she could feel."
You probably want to get rid of that second "was."
| Fanwright chapter 30 . 11/29/2014
That. Was. AWESOME!
| Fanwright chapter 27 . 11/29/2014
I need to book mark this chapter somehow. This was some good dialogue! I'm loathe to keep this review extremely short as I really want to see the end of this story (a good thing!) but I also don't want to spoil it for anyone who might read it.
I will say this: you did a fantastic job of showing where these two stand in terms of beliefs and ideology. They are two different people with same traits, both of them the brains of their respective groups and all. Even in defeat, Sokka still knows he has friends to back up and back him up. After all this is only after fall of Ba Sing Se. Yet, he still has some spirit left to fight back. Azula should have shot him down at many points during their talk, but it all went down a personal path in which Azula could not truly have a defense for. Maybe I just like her type of character to be taken down a peg from time to time, but not always. This scene, however, was great as it ties into more of Azula's disturbing revelations.
I won't say more. It was nice to see them together without being in some sort of danger for a change.
Good Stuff!
| Fanwright chapter 26 . 11/29/2014
Whew! They're finally out! Now… now they'll have to contend with each other again and given what Azula now knows the shared space will be awkward and difficult.
Talk about after shock… its seems both of them have come out of that place knowing too much, far too much. For Azula it seems she has just unlocked the secrets of the world around her and regrets such knowledge. For Sokka, he seems indifferent about it all. I guess in his case he always suspected he was just this small speck in a hostile, winter world on a mud ball floating through the vastness of space. He goes on about how the universe hates him, but there is an acknowledgment in that, one where he recognizes there are forces in the world larger than him and adapts to it. I guess its just different ways of growing up, based on his dialogue in the tent. How he can stop whats under the mountain though… well, thats a different story.
Azula on the other hand… oh boy. A punch in the gut to what she has found out is an understatement. Having brought up all her life thinking she was destined for greatness out of fear for being forgotten or unloved in some way… its a huge shock for her. Here she is, conqueror of Ba Sing Se, slayer of the avatar, next in line for the throne of a vast empire, ender of a war… all that doesn't matter and pales in comparison as she reaches to same conclusion as Sokka. I don't think she can ever go back the Fire Nation the same person after this ordeal, none of them will. If anything, she'll act out the same way she did with Sokka in a worst case scenario.
God knows how things will continue from here, but at least she got her bending back. I wonder if Sokka's answer to her realization was just a way get her angry so she could bend fire again… wait, I think was. Well shoot.

"I'm telling you," he says, measuring random stuff in my house, "things are shrinking." These days he carries a tape measure with him everywhere he goes. He moves to my refrigerator, retractable tape at the ready, and assesses its width, which is the same as it's always been. Everything is the same as it's always been, but that doesn't matter.
"Things are still shrinking," Lary says, "including tape measures. Trust me."
Of course I don't trust Lary. This is a guy who, a few years ago, tried to grind black Afghan hash into the pores of my canvas suitcase so I'd be busted by the drug beagle as we came through customs on our way back from Amsterdam. He didn't even try to be discreet.
"What the hell are you doing to my suitcase?" I shrieked as we sat at the airport waiting to board the plane with the rest of the cattle. But Lary did not even look up. "Your life is lacking drama," he said.
I almost missed the flight because I had to hose my bag off at the drinking fountain and then douse it with 10 different perfumes from the tester tray at Duty Free. To this day I am still amazed the drug dog didn't sink his teeth into my neck as I came back into the country. And it's funny I should mention baggage, because it's when the airlines got really strict about weighing luggage that Lary became convinced the universe is getting smaller.
"Fifty pounds used to be bigger than this," he said, indicating a carry-on bag loaded with his customary airplane supplies, which include Cheetos, white wine and forged documents declaring him a federally registered child molester. The food and wine are there to keep him from taking hostages in case the plane gets stuck on the tarmac, and the documents are there in case the flight attendant tries to seat him next to an adolescent.
Then he started measuring his cat Mona. But to be honest, Mona really was shrinking. Lary actually expects me to feed her while he's away, and he's away a lot lately. One time I opened his door and there was that decayed-flesh smell, and I thought, Christ, I really killed her this time. It wasn't Mona that was dead after all, but a rat she had killed to keep herself alive in between my appearances. After that, I was even less attentive, knowing if need be she could subsist on woodland creatures that roam the decrepit mausoleum Lary calls a home.
But Lary has stabilized Mona's shrinking process. It's the rest of the world he's worried about, and he's starting to get me worried, too. Just this morning I was laying there on the bottom part of my daughter's brand new bunk beds, looking at the mattress above me, trying to remember how my sisters and I used to make hammocks when we were kids. First we would take the blanket and tie it to one end of the top bunk and stretch it to the other and secure it somehow. The end effect was a big pocket of sorts, and we would climb inside and hang there like little larvae inside a cotton cocoon. I loved doing that. The knots themselves reminded me of a person's head wrapped in a turban, and the hammock their giant tongue.
Anyway, I was looking at Mae's top bunk wondering how the hell we all fit in there, giggling like we did. Surely bunk beds were bigger back then. Everything was bigger back then. The world was just so damn vast and unshoveled, full of mystery and funny turban-wearing people with giant tongues.
I remember a big field of mud next to our house, as expansive as the Sahara. I used to play in it all day, just mud. Christ, it seems even mud was bigger back then.
That last part is owed to our elderly neighbor named Rocky, who had a Polaroid camera as big as the seat on a bar stool. Once he took our pictures as we played and we got to watch them develop before our very eyes. We were so fascinated Rocky let us keep them. He was always telling us big stories about pirates who used to bury their loot in that very mud field way back when. He'd point to a particular landmark and say things like, "Pirates are notorious for burying their fortunes near crabapple bushes," and we'd rush over there and go digging for it, and damn if we didn't find something every time.
I realize now Rocky was burying it there himself. They were pieces of old rhinestone jewelry that probably belonged to his late wife, who I hear had died after cutting her hand on a rusty tin can. Afterward, every week or so, Rocky would scout a new spot and guide us to it, and we'd commence the gleeful process of uncovering new treasure.
Then one day Rusty came by to tell us of a new pirate site, and we simply declined the invite. It's not that we had grown weary of him, it's just that we had grown. When Rocky turned to leave, I could see he'd brought his Polaroid camera, and I almost called after him, but I stopped myself. I was on my way to bigger things, I thought, and people on their way to bigger things are too busy to uncover new treasure.
