August 11, 2003

Woke up around 6:00.  Instead of going back to sleep, I got up early.

Yvonne Ho wrote back to me! [She's a Hong Kong lawyer I met at Goodenough College during my eight-month stay there eight years before.]

Got a new issue of Harper's with an article titled "Against School."

Read an Atlantic Monthly article on the American fascination with the Founding Fathers, arguing that a better way to honor them is in original thinking.

Dinner was spaghetti.

Saw three more episodes of Band of Brothers, involving Bastogne; the later Battle of the Bulge; and facing off the Germans on the Rhine.
