Welcome to Ex Libris

A couple of days ago I posted an article over at World’s Blog to introduce myself to that group of readers. For those who didn’t catch the news earlier and have no idea what I am going on about, I was asked to head up the Ex Libris section of World’s blog. I included in my article a list of what I consider some of the best books of 2005. If you’re interested you can read it here.

    What Does It Mean to Be Discerning?

    Though I have heard it said of others, I have never had anyone tell me that I am a man of discerning tastes. I do not have a discerning palate or a discerning sense of style. I can, however, contentedly live without these if only I can have a discerning mind and a discerning spirit.
