      Listening to Christopher Phillips and Michael Krasny on KQED forum, talking about the Constitution CafĂ© Project inspired by Phillips’ new book, Constitution Cafe: Jefferson's Brew for a True Revolution. 
     Many called in to discuss what they thought needed to be added, subtracted or modified about the United States Constitution.
     Can we fit in somewhere, that if we don’t vote, we can’t complain about any messes we've gotten ourselves into?

When does a daughter become an adult?

When my daughter got her driver's license, I didn't feel like she was an adult. I just felt nervous.

When she turned twenty one, I didn't feel like she was an adult. I just figured she could buy booze without being sneaky.

But today my daughter ran 13.1 miles in the Nike Women's Half Marathon, which she started training for last April. You have to decide to do that yourself, and stick to it on your own. 



Now, I know, my daughter is an adult.

And yet I've always preferred wildflowers. 

I was terribly disappointed when I checked the pages of  Jane Austen's novel Sense and Sensability to find that Marianne Dashwood never actually uttered those words. They were only spoken in one of my favorite movie versions.
