P-U! :yack: Wow, listen at me, being such a slab snob. LOL. Hey, if the coin is nice, who cares about the plastic, right? ;) (Well, I do,...
PS- speaking of Churchill and 1940, I just finished the audiobook version of this short history of that period during my commuting last week. (It...
Been there, read that! Larson is one of my favorite authors of narrative nonfiction, and I think I've read his entire output save one, up to this...
Cloudy and cool here today. Perfect weather, as far as I'm concerned. [ATTACH] Though born and raised in Florida (and the climate here is the...
Oh, dang! I was all like, "what IS that?" at first. It totally does look like somebody poppin' a squat! (Sorry. I believe that's my daughter's...
