Man, it's been a tough winter for reading. I finally, but I finally finished a book... a good one! If you want to take on a description of a rural/agricultural lifestyle this one will do the trick. NEVER a dull/idle moment. This book does not cover C

I think I watched some of the TV miniseries B.I.T.D. As I recall Robert Mitchum played the lead. That's about all I remember. Anyway, Mr.Wouk falls comfortably into the category of 1950's American male authors of "BIG" books. Sagas... epics... think

“To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.”
― Macbeth

“Our revels now are ended. These our actors,
As I foretold you, were all spirits and
Are melted into air, into thin air:
And, like the baseless fabric of this vision,
The cloud-capp’d towers, the gorgeous palaces,
The solemn temples, the great globe itself,
Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve
And, like this insubstantial pageant faded,
Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff
As dreams are made on, and our little life
Is rounded with a sleep.”
― The Tempest
