Every once in a while…actually a couple of times a week…my brother, Ted, sends me a link to something that he thinks I will find interesting. Each of them is, in fact, quite interesting. But they are also, TIME SUCKERS. Time Suckers. Things that I have to read or watch on-line when I really have […] Although earlier forms of the proverb omit the first part of the quote, the most familiar version of it is “The road to hell is paved with good intentions”.
