According to my morning newspaper, it's today!

Never heard of it before, but it's a holiday I can thoroughly endorse!

So, what are you reading today?

The Crown of Mexico: Maximilian and His Empress Carlota, by Joan Haslip, a biography of Ferdinand Maximilian, whom the French installed as Emperor of Mexico, while the U.S. was distracted by our Civil War and in no position to enforce the Monroe Doctrine.

I can't remember the last time I sat down and read a book.   I never seem to have time.


Tell him when l come up to him and ask to play the record, l'm gonna say: ''Voulez-vous jouer ce disque?''

Will you play my record? One-track mind!
