Brad Pitt.., er, Achilles showed up. While interesting, thoughtful and well written story about war and more, not wowing me. Many years ago read a great book about the archaeologist who discovered the ruins of Troy, I think by Irving Stone. Enjoy your recommendations.

Love the pic. Most peaceful days are spent reading in armchair here in my hobbit hole, music playing softly, with dog and cats snoozing nearby.
