"Going Mad in Herds"

Maureen Dowd's latest column, while a bit too clever in the beginning, is a pretty good indictment of where a portion of the national psyche seems to reside just now, focusing on a recent up-tick in the false and bigoted belief that our President is Muslim.

Definitely worth a read.

Summer Reading

If you or your children have not completed your summer reading yet, now is the time!

I'm currently working on a thriller or two myself.

One way or another, please make sure that your children do their necessary reading, for school and for their intellectual development.

Even better, be sure to let your children catch you reading. Your literacy has a very big impact on theirs, which in turn has a big impact on their future success.
