    I used to read Barry, semi-occasionally, and I even checked out a book of his from the library...but I couldn't grind my way through the "article."
    I remember him being more upbeat......to say nothing of BRIEF.
    I stumbled around February.......and crashed in March.

    His article reminded me of his description of an Adele song:
    "....another one of those wrenchingly emotional Adele ballads that make you want to lie down and slit your wrists."
    I never remembered him being "non-partisan" but that's a story for another thread.....maybe in the kiddie-corner next door. ;)

    Happy New Year Everybody!!

    Adele? Guess I'm just an old romantic, (incurable)!
