A welcome to readers

As a resident of this planet for more than four fifths of a century, I have enjoyed both successes and disappointments in a wide variety of vocations, avocations, and life experiences. This blog satisfies my desire to share some thoughts and observations--trenchant and prosaic--with those who are searching for diversions which are interesting, poignant and occasionally funny. I also plan to share recommendations about good/great movies I've watched and books and articles which I've found particularly mind-opening, entertaining, instructive. In addition, I can't pass up the opportunity to reflect publicly on how I am experiencing the so-called Golden Years. Write anytime:

WHO NEEDS HARVARD?




I stumbled on this amazing site quite  by accident, and then examined it more closely.  Folks, there's something here for everyone.

Look carefully at the list of offerings on the right of the page in comparatively small blue print. Scroll down.  Keep scrolling. Choose any one that is of interest to you. Then click on it and see what is offered.  Keep clicking and looking and listening. I am really impressed with the variety and quality of what I see.  Let me know what you think.  This is an incredible resource for people interested in free education, home schooling, self-improvement, entertainment, catching up on "classics" missed  when adolescent hormones directed energies elsewhere.
