Have a great holiday! Just an odd note...I got a complimentary copy of People magazine in the mail this week! Who knows why, although it was my go to magazine when I took airplane trips, which I have decided never to take again. At my age, life is too short and delicate to spend in airports. Anyway one of those spooky coincidences!

Ha! If life’s too short for airplane travel, is there time enough to catch up with the Sexiest Man Alive?

Actually, it has been sitting under my stack of New Yorkers, Science News, New Science magazines, so it is still very much a question of whether I will make time for it (smile.)

— Emerson M. Pugh

“Seek simplicity, and distrust it.”

— A.N. Whitehead

“Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.”

— Henry Thomas Buckle

“That famous quote about how ‘great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, and small minds discuss people’ is discussing people.”
