If a college education did nothing but prevent you from ever acting like you were 100% sure about something ever again, & made you feel like you always needed to learn more & question your assumptions, it would be the best education money could buy, & worth the government providing it free to all.

This isn't about courage as much as leadership. It's about accepting responsibility to be a role model -- once expected of elected officials. And it's about making people/institutions accountable -- another facet of democracy that has gotten lost. Yoho should have been called out by his own party.

It's been a long week.
And we're only two days in.

You deserve this:

I've never been one for stuffed animals but had to buy a koala stuffy.

My books Notebook and Ring The Hill in the phone box library in the village of Craddock in the Blackdown Hills

The phone box library in the village of Craddock in the Blackdown Hills

I love the reuse of rural British phone boxes as tiny libraries so - after my ex-publishers collapsed & I bought the warehouse stock of my backlist from them - I decided that every time I saw one, I’d top it up with a few of my books. Not sure how many books it was in total, but definitely 300-plus.

Good literature transcends time.

Small dog (Yorkie, Beagle mix +8 other breeds) appears to be glaring and unhappy. Picture taken by a dog sitter while I'm away.

Same dog but relaxed and with his usual sweet expression.

The abandonment glare. Left: My dog in a "if looks could kill" pic from the house sitter while I was away. Right: Relaxed, sweet and how he usually looks when I'm home.

Another moment from the storm on Thursday night in Chicago.

This serene shot captures a large, amber-hued moon as it sinks toward a silhouetted treeline. Set against a cool, pre-dawn blue sky, the moon's warm glow illuminates the hazy details of the landscape, including a distant hilltop ruin and a faint power line tower. The composition beautifully highlights the quiet transition from night to day.

This striking photograph captures the first light of day as a brilliant sun breaks over the horizon. The sky is a canvas of fiery oranges and deep reds, with horizontal bands of clouds catching the early morning glow. The silhouettes of leafless trees and a distant hill stand sharply against the vibrant sky, evoking the peaceful, crisp atmosphere of a rural dawn.

Getting ready to take off for Australia. Health issues always distressing but not holding me back. Mojo remains terrif. Hope toe has healed!
