And from the very sad to the comically ridiculous, here's a gem from the Weird But True column in today's Post, in my own words: A beauty blogger claims to have found a wonderful elixir - her dog's fresh urine.

In last night's NBA draft, number two son LiAngelo was not selected and it has been reported that the Lakers are not even inviting him to join their summer league team. Right now there seems to be zero interest in him at the highest level. As Robert Burns said in To a Mouse... "The best laid schemes of mice and men/ Go often askew..."

non-fiction: Isabella: The Warrior Queen by Kirstin Downey and The Tudors by Richard Rex.
