Just another WordPress.com site. August 11, 2011. Lately the word is bandied around our financial markets are in a state of crisis, our credit rating is plummeting, our natural resources gutted. The Clash: once sang:. London’s burning with boredom now. London’s burning dial 99999. Now London is burning. It’s easier to navigate the Op Ed pieces, the endless discussions about a huge crisis and avoid seeing the smaller ones. The collection of 60 hygiene bags for homeless female. Veterans attending Stand Down.

Tuesday, March 19, 2013. Wolf Hall by Hillary Mantel. Henry VIII, Cromwell, Thomas More—three larger than life personages all appear in Hillary Mantel's book Wolf Hall. While I can't imagine wanting to live in England at that time, I can vicariously, and from a time distance of over 484 years, be involved in the machinations of the realm of Henry VIII.
