The Storm

NYT has an interesting piece about this company called Imagine that runs charter schools. There have been some questions into their use of state $. If you're starting a charter school, you should probably avoid this company. I don't have much confidence in the way they're doing things.
Tonight I ate popcorn for dinner and read Girl with the Dragon Tattoo all evening. We're having a stormy day here and I don't mind it one bit.

I say, yes, if you want to read it, you should.
