Wellesley 1961, A Reflection

102 women stood in the dorm library, members of the class of 1961 who chose to attend their 55th reunion.  It’s a self-select group, those that felt they had done well enough and looked good enough to attend, and who didn’t have personal or family issues to keep them away. June is the month when colleges across America welcome back their alumni, an exercise in nostalgia for the attendees and an unparalleled opportunity to fund-...

Vegan beauty: future, present, or passing fad?

If you have not tried to go for any of your passions, dreams or desires, and believe that this is the best your life is going to be, you are one of those fish in that aquarium. Just moving around the earth aimlessly until you die....


Jeffrey Gurian: Make 'Em Laugh

Before we even start, if you don’t know who Milton Berle or Henny Youngman were, look them up on Wikipedia right now. (Or, better yet, watch this exchange between them on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTM252Zffq0 .)
