Today, May 11, marks 33 months of this blog, started on August 11, 2008, and this entry is also the 2,000th entry in those 33 months, with the goal being for a long time to post 75 entries per calendar month!
The only days that the author does not post are when he is away on vacation, visiting his son in Washington, DC or traveling with a friend. The next five days, May 12-16, the author will be traveling with his son in Washington, DC, Maryland, and West Virginia, so the next entry will be on May 17 upon his return.
Also, this is an opportunity to announce that the author of this blog has retired FULL TIME from his career as a college professor of History and Political Science after 39 years, but is happy to announce that he plans to return to part time teaching after a year away!
Meanwhile, besides several trips over the next year, the author of this blog will continue to contribute his insights and judgments, and hopes his readers will continue to read and comment, making this blog all the better!

I am very sure you will be missed by your students. Myself a retired prof, that’s one of the things I can say I do miss…not all of them ~ LOL but you know the ones I am referring to..those who have touched your life and those whose lives who made a difference in. Sometime we don’t find this out until later..what a great feeling.
