Cooper: Diane, last night I dreamed I was eating a large, tasteless gumdrop, and awoke to discover I was chewing on one of my foam disposable earplugs. Perhaps I should consider moderating my nighttime coffee consumption.

Mid-year I started trying to read the great novels.  So far it's been a pretty tedious slog.  "Storming Las Vegas" was by far the most interesting of the four from 2014: a non-fiction account of thieves bumbling their way through the casinos' huge piles of cash.
