Yes, I run the television while I read the local newspaper online each morning and go through my personal emails.  I even run it as I work each for “background” noise if I am not in the mood for music that particular day.

This morning The CBS Early Show interviewed Tim Stark.  Not a household name?  Not an author you recognize?  Me either but I just finished reading an excerpt from his newest book and am heading to a bookstore to pick up a copy this week.  Heirloom: Notes From an Accidental Tomato Farmer is going to be the read that goes with me for my weekend in Niagara Falls this weekend.

Expect a book review next week some time.  If the entire book is even closely as good as the four pages in the excerpt, I am going to love it.
