Yesterday, the Little Man and I had our traditional meal at the Greek Food Festival. I’ve been every year since I’ve been in PA, and various members of the family have accompanied me. However, since it’s usually a very crowded affair, and eating out with all the children usually turns into a fiasco, it’s become a boys night out. We’ve been three years in a row, and each year it gets more special. Traditions need not be elaborate, just something simple you can share with your family.

Just finished reading “Predictably Irrational” by Dan Ariely. It was an unabridged audiobook, so my wife claims I didn’t “read” it though. Call it what you wish; I absorbed it into my melon. It was a very fascinating look into why we make the decisions that we do. I especially like how he describes the various experiments he and his colleagues performed. It also helped that the reader had a wonderful british accent, so that made the experience very enjoyable. All in all, I highly recommend this title, and I plan on giving it 4 stars. Cheers.
