What are you reading this week of May 28, 2017? [View all]

On this somber holiday weekend, please join me in gratitude for those who have sacrificed so that others could survive.

Here's a informative page for the day: http://www.history.com/news/8-things-you-may-not-know-about-memorial-day

In hopes we never again have to experience the horrors of war.


I'm now close to the end of "The Stars, My Destination" by Alfred Bester, which, sadly, contends that no matter how far we may advance technologically, war will always be a part of life.

What will you be reading this week?
