Some secrets never grow old. My review of "Grow Old and Don't Die by Ari Phillips is live on the website. @re_ari penned a strange, atmospheric story of immortality, family secrets, and a hidden spring in West Virginia. You might even get some comments from the spirit of George Washington. ginaraemitchell.com/grow-old…

As a former paperboy, I found this @newyorker.com piece highly evocative. Fortunately, I never had any troubling encounters like Hessler did. My unique angle is that I rollerbladed my route. newyorker.com/magazine/2026/…

Wow. One day after Washington Post leaders slash local coverage to just 12 people across the entire region, @BaltimoreBanner announces it is expanding further into the DC suburbs, taking on the state's second-largest county with almost a million residents, after having already expanded into its largest, Montgomery.

I am currently reading Running Man and Marathon Man at the same time. So far, so good. I look forward to watching the movies at the same time.
