Inner tranquility and unread books
It is God that has made us and not we ourselves, we are His people and the sheep of His pasture, and George W. Bush is no longer the top sheep. Altogether a cause for rejoicing as we forge ahead in the struggle to achieve inner tranquility, which for me the other morning included misplaced glasses, a madcap dash to the airport, and en route in the taxi, a call from my wife saying, "You forgot your billfold." One more sheep with a thorn in his hoof.
An agency chief ends the fight
A couple of weeks ago I published a cover story on my friend and occasional coauthor, Guy Louis Rocha, who retired this week as the chief of Nevada's state archives and records management program. In his interview with me for that article he was rather candid about his unhappiness with the state's treatment of the archives program, treatment he said was similar to that experienced by most state agencies. It was one of several interviews he gave on the subject and I wondered if all that venting had relieved him of some of his anger, so I called him last Sunday, the day before his last day on the job.
