Can anyone tell me why they say "a contact" instead of just "contact?"

So I was exposed to this song my Freshman year of college and I just have to say, it is truly top natch! How many music videos can claim aliens, Karen Carpenter, "interstellar policemen," and a very classy green jumpsuit? I will be bold and assert that very few can. I hope that you find much joy as you laugh in awe that this video was ever made.

"I could more easily forgive his vanity had he not wounded mine."

This week, we were given the assignment to "buy a stranger a coke" and then write about our experience....supposedly this saying, "buying someone a coke," does not literally mean that you buy them a can/bottle/glass of coke, but rather that you give them any sort of drinkable refreshment. My Professor (the pithy writer, comedian, and falconer:Shayne Clarke) took an even looser definition of this phrase and dictated that we only needed to buy something (anything) for someone that we didn't know. Well, I had a very busy week this week, so right after class I decided to use my 45 min break to "get er done" so that I wouldn't have to worry about it later. I waltzed to the Cougareat, determined to walk up to the most attractive man with an unadorned left ring finger that I could find and ask him if he wanted to get ice cream with me.

"Thankful" does not begin to capture the humble, sacred gratitude I feel for all in my family and for the relationships that I have (and will have) with them.
