Got plans this weekend? How about we destroy cancer.

Komen Race for the CureYou all may remember my review of Skin Deep, an Eight-Stone Press zine. In its introduction, editor William P. Tandy shared the story of his tattoo, which is also his story as a cancer survivor.

 On Sunday, Tandy will participate in the Susan G. Komen Maryland Race for the Cure. I know there are many people who have had their lives changed forever by this disease, and at times like these, there's something we can actually do about it.

If you're so inclined, send a donation along. And if you're already involved in this rewarding event, leave a comment, tell us your story and maybe we'll see you this weekend.\

Some all-time favorites: A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole; Wind, Sand and Stars by Antoine de Saint-Exupery; and anything by Calvin Trillin or John McPhee. He belongs to a book club with a Jewish theme.
