Well, how about that! The feature on Act One in Details magazine came out pretty darn well, I’m thinking. (Don’t cancel your subscription after all, Dan!) The reporter, Ian, did a very fair job. I don’t think there was any discernible sarcasm in the piece. And – thank God! – the stero-typed staged shots of our students didn’t make the final cut…at least in the on-line version of the story. Anyway, go here to read the whole piece. (Although my... Read more

…for Barb “Scourge of Great Pond” has left the Belgrade Lakes Region. Just coming from three days of fishing and splashing around in Maine with the Nicolosis and Pattons. (And, soory, AL, but that fish I caught the first night was the biggest of the week. It was too!) It was great, if a little too much Maine for my tastes these last few decades. When I was a kid, I was compelled to put up with Maine people’s ‘last... Read more
