Story books and stuffies, what could be better! I'm sure the piece you're working on will match this magical moment. Can't wait!

Lorraine Evanoff: The project wanders because I run into such fascinating people. Some of these people lived to be 98-years-old, so they saw a whole world evolve in front of them. As histories of wonderful people -- and many proto-Nazis that tried to suppress them -- so many stories come to life.

Reading primary sources brings you so close to the women and men in the trenches -- literally, since some of these were WWI veterans.

Thank you for our evolving friendship!

Thank you for this heartwarming interlude, Armand. The faces of all these wonderful characters are so inspiring as they listen or read with rapt attention. Isn't it grand that childhood is not just for children? Looking forward to your upcoming piece! -Kate

My well-loved wife, Nancy, and I are both children . . . at 76! We spat like kids and laugh about it.
