Apologies and Weekend Calendar

Please excuse my relative silence this week. Life's busy. I'll show up here Monday loaded for bear. In the meantime, depending on where you live and what your interests are, I hope you enjoy: the snow, the Oscars, the 85th annual Middlebury College Winter Carnival (five years older than the Oscars!), midnight bowling at the University of Wisconsin, or the Why St. Augustine? Scholarly Symposium.
