Between Christmas, New Years, and Valentine’s Day there are always a lot of new engagements. And, as I do from time to time, I want to help all these happy couples have a long and happy marriage by adding mine to the long list of (mostly) unwanted advise these folks are going to get.

Recently I rediscovered how comforting it really is to disconnect from everything electronic and just get lost in a good old fashioned book. I own lots of books, and I continue to buy books.
