The Kabuki Silence

Ted Krever: Writing and other forms of torture Posted on September 2, 2016 by ted kreverSeptember 2, 2016

Today’s Reading…

Ted Krever: Writing and other forms of torture Posted on November 20, 2014 by ted kreverNovember 20, 2014

Ahh, it’s a good day. Two items with the scent of clear thinking (so rare, these days)… Ford’s unofficial rebuttal to Cadillac’s sleazy ‘Let’s all work ourselves to death because we’re Americans!’ campaign (I recommend watching the Cadillac ad first).   … Continue reading →

The March

Ted Krever: Writing and other forms of torture Posted on September 21, 2014 by ted kreverSeptember 21, 2014
