Greetings. I have just posted an earlier June 1 entry, prior to this one (please check the Blog Archive for June). Two and a half months between today's two entries and the previous one (March 16) is way too long a time between entries. I've decided that on average, one entry every two weeks, with more when events dictate, is about right, and I will aim at that.
Probably the most important event during the entry absence has been President Obama's visit to the Philippines in late April, so my entry earlier today covers a human-interest item about the visit.
If anyone had been wondering about which course--"The Hobbit" or "The Philippines,"-- was selected for me to offer at St. Norbert College next Fall, the answer is "The Hobbit" (see the March 16 entry). But it was a close thing, and subsequently the University of Wisconsin Green Bay's Institute for Learning in Retirement asked me to do a two-hour session on "Discovering the Philippines."
The last item of note is that a group of students and one administrator from UW Green Bay will be going to the Philippines later in June for an International Habitat For Humanity build. More on that in the next entry.
Thanks for your patience, and I look forward to hearing from you.
