As suburban children we floated at night in swiming pools the temperature of
blood; pools the color of Earth as seen from outer space. We would
skinny-dip, my friends and me …

There is nothing quite like swimming on a hot muggy night in South Florida.
The water tempurature is just right—enough to cool you off without having

Heaven.
And it's nice to have a friend like Mark who allowed Spring, Greg and I to
swim in his pool at midnight.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
