archives

There is something you need to know about these archives: they are divided into three clearly demarcated sections, but then the first section is vaguely divided into four mini-sections. We won't actually demarcate the thresholds of the mini-sections, but you'll probably know when you trip over one. The mini-sections, rewinding from the pesent toward the past, are:

A. The Most Sentences Make Sense section
B. The Some Sentences Kind of Make Sense section
C. The Learning to Write section
D. The Mastering the Alphabet section

For your pleasure, we've included all columns, even the sucky ones and even the ones that date back to Adam's college days when he called himself The Illiterate Donkey for no reason whatsoever.* Scroll down for Draft Boards and Frickin' Services/Old School Mixes.

Draft Boards
Q What are Draft Boards?
A Draft Boards are me, my college roommate, Mark, and my other college roommate, Fred, selecting "teams" in various categories. Sometimes we pick countries to help us fight World War III and sometimes we pick U.S. Presidents to make up the starting five of a basketball team. The only real rule is that Fred always loses.

Frickin' Services and Old School Mixes
We here at TheAdamWhite.com like music. So, as Robert Goulet would say, we've gone out and done the music industry a frickin' service by posting a new iMix every month. And Mark "VH1 Classic" Sweeney, our Director of Historical Perspective, is compiling older, wiser "Old School Mixes" for those of you who enjoy waxing nostalgic.
