A River Runs Through It is wonderful writing and a great film. Part of the reason it resonates with most remains we all love people we may not ever understand. I just finished a biography of MacLean and he was a fierce critic of even those close to him. I suspect writing really well puts you in...

Got my son's reflux and vomiting under control after a progressively worse spring, summer and fall. Big, big win for our household.

Years ago I was fishing with my young sons on this particular stretch of river with a single barbless rooster tail within the bounds of this state's fishing laws for this particular river. I hooked a decent fish, gave the spin rod to my boy, who must have been about 8 or so at that time, and he...

Brian between you finding the stolen mail and numerous tubes of abandoned lukewarm meat (let alone the ripped pillow toy, the ducks unlimited bucket, the mysteriously shrunken one-armed cosmonaut, the perfumed swimmer and so on) you pretty much have plot elements for a new Hardy Boys mystery...

Foster-Wallace's stuff is often outstanding. Agree that a lot of Infinite Jest was absolutely prescient, some of it laugh-out-loud funny, other parts hideous men cringeworthy. His breadth of understanding neurological and psychological states- despite having no formal training in those fields-...

So good to hear this Jerry, stamina will come, keep at it!
