But regular readers will likely recall I can be easily distracted (squirrel!) and that I often report on multiple items in a column that, in theory, […]

Read Michener’s ‘Centennial’
If you’ve been reading my columns, you’ve noticed I’m basically illiterate. I blame my dyslexia and public education, but my Olympic-level laziness could be the driving factor.
