My father-in-law has led a very interesting, purpose driven life. He has stories about growing up in an agricultural part of New York State, then joining the military, and travelling the world in retirement. He has an interest in geneology and has researched his family tree to the Mayflower and Plymouth Rock. It is a story worth telling, and after he gathered his ideas in a Open Office and/or MS-Word document, it was decided to publish the book.

This spring was a good time for reading in the house. My cousin, sent me a book of my high school teacher's poetry and musings. It gave me a better sense of the man -- now that I'm more his age than I was in the 1980's. Some poems were as good as anything he taught us (A.E. Houseman, Keats), and some I imagined I could write (though probably not). He had such an infectious passion for literature -- it inspired me.

How to do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy
by Jenny Odell
I recently read this book and enjoyed the idea of learning more about the social networking industry and how to counteract it's addictive nature. I think I have a reasonable balance in the amount of time I spend with technology, but I suppose, that's what someone who has disengaged from his/her local environs might say.
