It does my husband too.

All you scientific types . . . ! on the other hand, I couldn't balance my checkbook if you held a gun to my head.

A liberal education (in the old-fashioned 'trivium' sense) is not entirely wasted. But we have divided it from the 'quadrivium', and I think both sides suffer in consequence.

To: AnAmericanMother; Mrs. Don-o

I like epic poetry ... it’s all narrative and sequential and stuff ... and ballads of the Kipling or Robert Service sort, and Housemann and the War Poets. For theological matters, though, give me facts!

I have no problem with the “no pain” part: I’ve known people who had very easy deliveries, and my 6th one was pain-free until I had to push him out rear-end-first. (That was batty Pat, who turned 11 on Dec. 22.)

Merry Christmas to you and your family!
