A Man’s Guide to Shopping at Wal-Mart When arriving at the Wal-Mart parking lot, you should always be prepared to remove a shopping cart from the space you attempt to enter. In a perfect world, it should be legal for you to find the person who left the cart there and punch him or her in the […]
Perhaps you will remember Kate Elliott and/or her touching Guest Voice, from May 18 of last year. The story in that selection occurred on her long-distance walk on the Camino in Spain. This past Fall, she conquered the Via Francigena in Italy, ending in Rome. Her selection today was written shortly after she arrived back […]

The entire second section (where other features like Aunt Edna, Verses, Guest Voices, Math Tidbits, and other Updates usually reside) was missing. To see the mailing again, visit Apr16Mailing.
