I asked myself this question after reading a certain post here. It dealt with a person in the news. Someone who is of the opinion that only his way is the best way for our country. He is wrong but many, too many, side with him and...

After a whirlwind of activities yesterday, my elder daughter sat me to watch a West End concert and a Spielberg film 'The Post.'

Who could be more annoying than a sibling?
Oh yes, there could be as many friends as we can make but none knows us like as brothers do.

A fellow mylotter panned my attention to The Case for Christ, said she was watching the movie with her husband. Can't remember if I had watched it before so I googled for the film.
