Hunting Hitler on the History Channel
I chanced upon a quatrain of Nostradamus while in college, forget the applicable century chapter, but that passage mentions Hitler by name: The evil Hiser... When the child of Germany knows no laws. Padre Pio de Pietrelcina was questioned at his monastery in 1945 as to Hitler's future and he... -

What was the last TV show you watched?
Murphy's Law, BBC fare, bit dated 2001 or so, but none the worse for wear. Irish cop in London, troubles back Northern Ireland; wife left him after their daughter murdered. Blames himself, cannot let go. Acceptable undercover dual-life cop drama, cogent tight plot. Solid English thespian strut...- Harp

You know you are getting old when:
Grad proctor days, tutorial sessions, distant memories.... I didn't start college until I was twenty one; however a few years before I began to realize that there was more to life than baseball and girls. Thrown into circumstances unlike most with older men whom had inner lives, highly read...- Harp

When Travel was Romantic
Gorgeous pix counselor. How goes your law practice? Speaking about airport security procedure, fifteen years or so ago; while babysitting my sister's kids I took a Playboy away from my nephew. Took it home, looked it over, read through it, tossed out. A week or so later going through Chicago's...- Harp

The Era -- Day By Day
The Quincy, MA young woman brutally slain by a satan thief all too vividly recalls this morning's televised news coverage of certain events shown as war criminal rape and murder. And children were victims. Beyond disgust. Mr and Mrs Leslie received fairly lenient sentence considered against...- Harp

When Travel was Romantic
Earlier in my travels I seemed a suspicious Irishman, regularly selected for profile. Things seem more relaxed now, aside noted security criticism of books inside carryon. I've noticed that too. First lacks class... I habitually sit in steerage.;)- Harp

What Was The Last Movie You Watched?
^ A Susan Hayward movie dimly remembered except Arthur Kennedy took a punch from a cowboy, resentment writ large across his phiz, and Bob Mitchum stepped in. Suzie-Q there for emphasis isosceles triangle. ;)- Harp

^CTS: I confess, mea culpa, to having seen the late honorable Mr Justice Douglas as foolish aged satyr whose jurisprudence fell wayside against a curmudgeon's seeming sexuality and reluctance to quit stage with a modicum grace. I read enough of him to have known better. :(- Harp

The Era -- Day By Day
Object. The first thing I learned in law school was to know the facts of the case. And, while in school I did a turn behind the counter of a convenience store; during which time a Chicago cop came in for the free coffee kept for the blue and recounted a local traffic homicide. Pedestrian later...- Harp

Caniff plays characters like pawns on a chessboard. Still chess not checkers but with his prognostic grasp of the larger events unfolding readership deserve credit for perseverance. April is far too young for cavalier romping around; so the board game suddenly changes from adroit chess to...- Harp

I recall my mother telling the clan how I would approach her with the Sunday comics section asking her "read me this" and I still remember Dondi and Terry. My introduction to literature. Normandie, undeniably admirable, and equally inexplicable even strange. Or, uncharitably: weird. Padraic...- Harp

My personal inference is Normandie has begun to see reason. She cannot rationally ignore the fact that she has married a louse. But, Merrile aside for a moment, Pat is at least for now stuck in Limbo-a purgatorial that may chastise his guilt while perhaps cleansing his love for Normandie. Ardor...- Harp

So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.
Many years ago in Munich I met this girl, gorgeous blonde, we were both teenagers, her father was American, had fought in the OSS, stayed in Germany, married a local girl, and his daughter I immediately fell for. She knocked my socks off. And she slipped away. :( But, I met the most fascinating...- Harp

The crux here is that Normandie is a woman of moral rectitude. She is also inexplicable to ordinary expedient measure, which would have witnessed Padraic do the Maciavelli, sans remorse; yet as actor, wife, mother she remains, ostensibly, and her word must be considered valid testament to her...- Harp
