    Class of ’84 Update

    Dear Middlesex School Class of ’84, Last time around, a fair amount of people wrote in but only a few took advantage of the “comment” link below this post to put their updates online.

  • Credit History

    So I’m almost done updating my addresses on all the various magazines, credit cards, frequent flier accounts, and other sundry organizations that like to mail me things from time to time.  Today I called Citibank and in the process of updating my address am given the gentle pitch to take advantage of their service which…
