Music, Movies, and Books

There is very little music that I do not like. Pre code movies and earlier (30's, 40's) movies interest me. Again, there are so many wonderful books written on such a variety of topics that picking a favorite(s) is nigh to impossible.

Help to raise a most beautiful and extremely talented daughter.
