Window on the World Column | Old Men and Dogs

The end of life is a funny old time, isn’t it. Not that we really know when that is. But, as your muzzle gets greyer and your eyes a tad more cloudy, there becomes a time when you can no longer be considered ā€œmiddle...

Funny Papers Again Column | ā€˜One Ticket for Greenfield, Please.’ ā€˜ER, Which One?’

Window on the World Column | Photographs and Memories

The best-made plans, as they say, are invariably subject to change. I had lots of projects in mind for the weekend ahead. Since I am working on a new book, I like to squeeze in some ā€œme hoursā€ in my free time, stolen minutes...
