NYT links. The story on daily drinking alcohol is especially interesting. I gave up alcohol on 12/31/18.

Wisdom in Your Pocket.
Regardless your religion, or lack thereof, Seneca and Cicero are terrific, easy to read. You can put them on your Kindle for free. I read those guys and Thoreau’s Walking (also free on Kindle) while running on the treadmill.

Ever wondered about James Joyce’s Ulysses? It’s a tough read, for sure. Try the movie. It’s very good. I last saw it in 1967. My lady says we will watch it tonight. She hasn’t seen it, but did read A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, and loved it.
