Writers Shouldn't Know Their Place

I found a quotation that I thought particularly appropriate for writers. It by a writer, Richard Lacayo (Time Magazine). And it was written about a writer, Mark Twain. Here it is:

"The last thing you need in a free society is people who know their place."

Don't you love it? Lacayo goes on to say, "Twain knew that. It's one reason we know his place--and it up there very high."

Best,

New GI Bill, Finally!

My grandson is elated with the new GI Bill that Congress passed. Thought I'd let you know about it, too. http://www.gibill.va.gov/S22/Amount.htm
