I think maybe it was mentioned early on, but then we never heard anything more about him.

I can hardly believe it, but since I gave up on the fiction issue, at the moment I've actually outrun my New Yorkers.  :laugh:

So at lunch today I read (wait for it) ... the July-August issue of the AARP Bulletin. And I think I should start reading them. There is interesting stuff in them.

I wrote an article for the AARP some years back. It was about attention overload, which I myself suffer from.

Although I hardly ever read political stories anymore, I found "The New Blue Wall" about Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer interesting. I didn't realize the extent that Michigan works with the automotive industry and how that affects the whole Midwest. It should have been shorter though.

I intend to read that, but, of course, I had to go first to Jill Lepore on bears.  ;D
