Reading now
When the children of his village were struck with a mysterious illness, Number Ten Ox sought a wiseman to save them. He found master Li Kao, a scholar with a slight flaw in his character. Together, they set out to find the Great Root of Power, the only possible cure.
The quest led them to a host of truly memorable characters, multiple wonders, incredible adventures—and strange coincidences, which were really not coincidences at all. And it involved them in an ancient crime that still perturbed the serenity of Heaven. Simply and charmingly told, this is a wry tale, a sly tale, and a story of wisdom delightfully askew. Once read, its marvels and beauty will not easily fade from the mind.
The author claims that this is a novel of an ancient China that never was. But, oh…it should have been!

Democracy
Democracy... is a charming form of government, full of variety and disorder; and dispensing a sort of equality to equals and unequals alike.

Another day at work
The kids are quietly at work and so am I. I feeling like being alone and reading all day. I have been reading Caliban's War, by James S.A. Corey and I can't seem to put it down. Hopefully tonight I will finish it and move on to the next book. This week I only have to work four days, Friday, the 15th, is a local holiday and the next Monday is Presidents Day, so it is a four day weekend. So long for now, I have to get busy and get back to work.
