Great summaries!! Excellent use of time. I wish I read more, so I live vicariously through those who do. Love your site, Diddy!!!

I have some serious issues in common with James Madison but I don’t want to read about them. Also, Chris, I don’t believe anyone would call you mediocre.

Pops gave me the funniest book I have ever read. When I really need something to make me laugh heartily, I reread “A Confederacy of Dunces”. Do it; you won’t be sorry.

Welcome back. Almost 63 years ago I went on my honeymoon to Myrtle Beach. It was relatively an outpost in South Carolina. Now it is teeming with people. I didn’t do much reading 63 years ago. Perhaps honeymoons have changed like so much else in the world.

Thanks for the recommendation, Aunt Joan.

Also, I think when you get married in your mid 40's, reading takes more of a priority on the honeymoon. Maybe I'm boring. :)

You could never be boring.

It’s been a while since our honeymoon, but Mrs. ECM says “finding someone new and taking that person on a honeymoon” would be a bad thing for me to do.

I mean, she could find someone else as well.

Just saying.
