Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortals ever dared to dream before.

Like the perfect pumpkin waiting for a master carver, Halloween never fails to  stir the imagination. Not surprisingly, it&#8217;s a favorite holiday among the creative souls in my family. [...]]]></description>

&#8220;A truly good book teaches me better than to read it. I must soon lay it down, and commence living on its hint. What I began by reading, I must finish by acting.&#8221; &#8212; Henry David Thoreau

&#8220;Damn everything but the circus!&#8221; &#8212; e.e. cummings
March really did come in like a lion. For starters, daily doses of economic bad news are dumping more black paint on our national angst and depression.
