Always Striving To Be Better!

I don’t know the last time I ever ran ten miles in under ninety minutes, but it was a long time ago.

Guys in their mid-fifties aren’t supposed to be this fast.

In 2022, I actually made it to 45 books, but, then again, well, a whole collection weren’t all that scholarly (as you’ll soon see).

Here, now, are the books I most enjoyed in 2022:
