Odd Thomas by Dean Koontz – one of the better books I’ve read in quite a while. It’s about a short order cook that can communicate with the dead.  It’s a very interesting story with a twist at the end. I give it a thumbs up.

Rosie and I headed up to Boston for the weekend for a family gathering. People flew in from Austrailia and Ireland to meet up. Boston is a nice enough place, but it just doesn’t have the heart that NYC has. It’s like something is missing somehow. The city is beautiful, and there is lots to […]
