A great loss to the literary world…

Ms. L’Engle, we hardly knew ye. Famed author of the TIME series, the first books purchased specifically for me and the reason I became an avid reader. With an introduction like this, how can a 9 year old not be intrigued: A Wrinkle in Time Meg Murry, her little brother Charles Wallace, and their mother … [Read more…]

Bad Lyrics…

Click here for bad lyrics, there’s a top 2o list as well as comments of the worst lyrics ever released. I personally think that a lot of Beatles stuff was drug-induced insanity in the form of music. “Plasticine porters with looking glass ties” for example. Wikipedia can say whatever they want.

I love cardinals…
