I review this book with mixed motives. On the one hand, sexual addiction is so devastating to men and those who love them that almost any assault mounted on its impregnable fortress is worthy of applause. After all, the public leaders with whom I work and whose downfall resounds so loudly are grateful for almost any weapon they can add to their armament. Continue Reading »

When I left a country and an institution I’d served for sixteen years, I received from fellow pencil-head Kelly Liebengood the Ideal Personal Library Embosser. I believe it may have been the nicest gift I’ve ever received and perhaps the highwater mark of Mr Liebengood’s unenviable life. Continue Reading »

In this moment we seem inebriated by our own self-esteem, yet with little hope of achieving it via the intoxicating route we have chosen. So it may seem a harsh time to speak of God laughing sarcastically at the little efforts of humankind to establish its status and prerogative.

Don’t skimp on quality when it comes to socks, ties, and ink.
As a recent immigrant to the world of fountain pens, I’ve enjoyed learning to write with two new Cross instruments. I started off with Cross ink refills that fit inside the pen, but have since discovered the joy of dipping. Continue Reading »

R.E.M’s fans love the fact that the threesome does not tinker overmuch with their successful recipe. Reveal is vintage R.E.M.: spare orchestration, Michael Stipe’s incessantly cool voice providing virtually the only vocals, stream-of-conscious lyrics that seem to say something deep even when—just maybe—they don’t.
