As I write this, only a few hours remain in the year 2020, and I can’t imagine anyone will be sorry to see it go. Around this time last year, I added a brief post to share a doodle I’d…
Just when you thought 2020 couldn’t be any more of a wall-to-wall crap-a-palooza, now comes word that Sir Sean Conney has left us. Like most everyone else, I first encountered Connery as James Bond. As a kid of the 70s,…
