    So Many Questions, So Few Answers0

    Melinda Wentzel

    Generally speaking, I think people prefer to know why things happen as opposed to being in the dark. They like certainty versus uncertainty. A black and white rendering over endless shades of gray. At least that describes my inclination. And although a great deal of time has passed since my brother’s suicide, 20 years to

  • Unkillable Coyote: That’s Not Quite All, Folks!0

    Joseph W. Smith III
