In the corrupted currents of this world Offense’s gilded hand may shove by justice, And oft ’tis seen the wicked prize itself Buys out the law

RIP Donald Sutherland. It makes me so sad, but also has me remembering so many fine little moments: The plaintive "this is my job" in "Animal House"; the nightmare fuel shriek at the end of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers"; the Kate Bush "Cloudbusting" video; just to name a few. 💔

Looking for non-fiction book recommendations, especially history/politics (I recently finished Timothy Snyder's "The Road to Unfreedom"). What's everyone reading?

Hope everyone is enjoying a happy, healthy holiday season. One of my traditions has been to add a donation to Kiva, and reinvest past microloans that have been paid off. Anyone care to join me by helping Annet in Nakivale, who's getting close to achieving her loan goal? www.kiva.org/invitedby/sh...

Can you help Shirley support Annet?www.kiva.org Kiva is a loan, not a donation. With Kiva you can lend as little as $25 and make a big change in someone's life.
