I remember a kerfuffle about a certain character we were calling OADCW Courtney. We had a bit of trouble over that. -
I could actually see Adam Driver in the role.

You want to talk retro? Lately I've been so desperate, I've taken to watching The Waltons, Gunsmoke and Wagon Train. Amazingly progressive for the early sixties.

When I was in high school. we were assigned The Grapes of Wrath. I just could not get through it. My teacher knew that I was a prolific reader and wasn't just trying to weasel out of it so he gave me Giovanni's Room to read instead. It's by James Baldwin and it opened up a whole new world of literature for me.

Then the immortal Nancy Drew and after that all bets were off, I devoured everything from Catch 22 to Jane Eyre. I had 16 English credits when I bailed out of high school to go to design school. Thank you GED.

I have found my attention span has decreased dramatically. I am re-reading one of my favorite books right now. I used to be able to read for hours. Now, I find it difficult to sit still and concentrate for long periods.

I've been back and forth from Seattle to Pittsburgh on trains a few times in my life. The first time both my mom and I got motion sickness on the first day but after that we were good to go.
