Mistakes To Avoid When You’re Fighting A Cold

"Fifteen-minute rest stop, ladies." Some sisters I met along the road. #spiritual #journey?

The Poets Theatre is reborn with a reading at Sanders Theater of Dylan Thomas's "Under the Milk Wood" featuring Cherry Jones, Alvin Epstein, Karen MacDonald and Tommy Derrah. Those actors were last on stage together in Robert Brustein's adaptation of "Lysistrata" @americanrep or so I'm told.

The book is at #bea15 but @dickflavin isn't. Come July, #RedSoxRhymes will be everywhere

Lean on me? And then this happened, too. Kori Withers, Carly Simon and #SallyTaylor at #Consenses concert at Wellesley College. Installation at Wellesley student center through Tuesday.

All good destinations. Some better than others.

Love this. How can you not?

"Not Jefferson, Wilson, Churchill, not even FDR, but Herbert, by God, Hoover. …To me, that’s a real man." – Ted Williams on his political views, as quoted in Ben Bradlee, Jr.’s biography of the baseball great, "The Kid: The Immortal Life of Ted Williams", to be released on Tuesday, Dec. 3 by LittleBrown.

Ted Williams had great aim off the field 

An exclusive excerpt from Ben Bradlee, Jr.’s “The Kid”:  On Saturday mornings as a boy, Ted [Williams] and one of his best friends, Joe Villarino, would hike up into the hills outside of San Diego and go rabbit hunting, swim and look for Huck Finn-like adventure. “One day,” Villarino remembers, “we was walking around this trail and a rattlesnake come out and Ted shot it with a .45 he had. We laid it aside, and when we came back, he wrapped him around his neck and shoulders and carried it home.  Another time, at Dobie’s Pond, there was a kid in trouble. He was about eight or nine. We was about fourteen or fifteen. The kid was kinda splashing around. Ted went in and got him. He didn’t make a big deal of it. He didn’t like to be in the limelight too much.”
