Books and other stuff I feel like discussing
By education and experience - Accountant with a specialty in taxation. Formerly a CPA (license has lapsed). Masters degree in law of taxation from University of Denver. Now retired. Part time work during baseball season as receptionist & switchboard operator for the Colorado Rockies. This gig feeds my soul in ways I have trouble articulating. One daughter, and four grandchildren. I share the house with two cats; a big goof of a cat called Grinch (named as a joke for his easy going "whatever" disposition); and Lady, a shelter adoptee with a regal bearing and sweet little soprano voice. I would be very bereft if it ever becomes necessary to keep house without a cat.

"This ain't a football game,
we do this every day."
Earl Weaver in a 1982 conversation with George F. Will.
Weaver died today at the age of 82. He was the winningest coach the Orioles ever had, and like Yogi Berra and Casey Stengel almost as famous for being quotable as for being an excellent manager.
The quote above is a favorite of mine, for awhile it was on one of the employee bulletin boards near my work area at Coors Field.
And to add to the sorrow for baseball fans, Stan Musial also died today, at the age of 92. In the days before free agency, Musial was the face of the St Louis Cardinals to almost every fan of every other major league team.
May they both rest in peace.
