Another new reader joined us this month, Shayne from Kansas City! Interesting life story — he was trained in PsyOps [Psychological Operations] at Ft. Bragg (KY) and has spent considerable time overseas. He’s also had a separate career in IT, also working for the...
Another good turnout for the September Book Lovers SIG matching last month’s attendance. Always exciting when someone new joins us; this month it was Robert from Omaha! Robert is a retired Industrial Engineer. He was born in Austria (I think) where his father served...
Big crowd for the August Book Lovers SIG, the largest group we have had in a while. While we were waiting for everyone to join in, we started talking about movies. Movie Lovers SIG, anyone? Cynthia recommended a film she recently watched on Netflix, Godzilla Minus...

Great book club in February. We had eight people online, including Jim, who we hadn’t seen in a couple months. His volunteer work has kept him pretty busy, including running some kind of regional math competition. Tim was a newcomer last month, and he joined us...
Another really good Book Lovers SIG this month. Hadn’t heard from John in a long time, and it was early last summer that we heard from Nathan, so swell to see him again. Plus: Cynthia, who was new to our group last month, returned for another go. Glad she decided...
What a great Book Lovers SIG we had this month; three new members joined us! Cynthia and Tammy from Wichita, plus Tim from Garden Grove, CA. Welcome to all! Cynthia also passed on some good end-of-year book recommendations: The Best Books of 2024 | Smithsonian...
