Ten minutes to write. Less time to read.

Worth Commemorating
Much of the news today commemorates the horrific deeds of twelve years ago on 9/11. This is as it should be. We remember Pearl Harbor long after the fact; the same with D-Day and Kennedy’s assassination. We should remember 9/11

Forever Books
The only items I purchase from Amazon are e-books for my Kindle®. And, if I didn’t own a Kindle®, I’d never frequent the Amazon site. In my mind, it contributes to the demise of independently owned bookstores, those little gems
