I’ve noticed progress on PBOTL is very slow. Part of that is a result of Week 5 of HTRYN being focused on identifying conflict, and identifying conflict is tough. At least it is for me. I have a total of 83 cards to process, and my progress is glacial. I … Continue reading →
God Don’t Like Ugly is the first Mary Monroe book I’ve read. It was available for free (briefly) at the Amazon Kindle site. I found it to be a powerful book in many ways. While the primary characters in this book are Black, and we explore Black culture in the … Continue reading →

The Internet connection went down at 0830 this morning. I thought it was an outage, so I waited until noon to call tech support. ATT tech support says it was my power cord. I drove to Temple, bought a new modem (because they don’t sell power cords), came back, plugged … Continue reading →

A friend of ours decided to throw himself a 70th birthday party, and he chose to do it at Reunion Tower in Dallas, so to make it easy, we decided to stay at the Hyatt Regency (which coexists with Reunion Tower).
