Adele's Fungal Infection Has People Talking About Jock Itch Which people, we wonder? What percentage of the population were aware of this significant news?

You must change your life. –Rilke I want to change my life. –Audrey Horne I am really enjoying my re-viewing of Twin Peaks, though I'm pretty sure that I'm not going to be able to get all the way through it before it goes off Netflix at the end of this month.

An interesting piece at Catholic Word Report. Küng died a few weeks ago, which I had not heard. I'm one of those who considered him a noxious influence on the Church back thirty years and more ago when he was in the news fairly often. So knowing that he thought so highly of Mozart, and
