Ancient diet for a trim look

I DID SOME MATH FOR YOU. I had to. The scholar didn’t finish the job. (Sorry, you get a B+, which is fine. It would have been an A- if the math problem hadn’t shown up on the lead page.) I’m talking about an article in the current issue of Biblical …

Sad enough to play a harmonica

EVER FEEL heavy all over, in a way that has nothing to do with weight? My fingers are heavy on the keyboard now. The sky is spitting unpredicted snow again. My snowblower is in the shop. I should get it back today for $160. I’m working on a cough. …
