Learning #13: The Accident

Drove 9 hours in torrential rain to visit with my fam, the Georgia Peaches.  I learned on NPR that our national anthem was composed during the War of 1812.  I'd always thought the song referenced the Revolutionary War.  So that's some prime time learning.

Here's where the search for learning can backfire.  As I drove 9 hours in torrential rain, I listened to Loving Frank, a great novel about Frank Lloyd Wright and his love affair with Mamah Borthwick Cheney.  I had one CD left to go when I arrived home. After relaxing and chatting a bit, I decided to google search to see how much of the story is really from real true life.  I ended up learning the horrid ending to the book ACCIDENTALLY!  Sometimes learning really bites. Frankly, I'm irked.
