COST BENEFIT RATIO
For some time, particularly during this economic downturn, Linden has wondered about the cost of college as compared to potential
financial benefit. There is no doubt that the cost keeps escalating as does the number of borrowers who are unable to pay their student loans. Linden does not have the answer to what each person should do but it demands that affected persons carefully consider the effect it may have on their lives. A link below touches on the subject.

In a related matter, at the complete opposite of the educational scale, Linden brings you another link to a person of such limited intelligence that it is scary to think that they probably vote. If this one does vote, 10 to 1 she is a democrat. It is quite possible that this link has been presented to you earlier (don’t remember) but, if so, you may as well ruin your day and view it again.

LINDEN'S LIFE
The musical selection I presented for your enjoyment one week ago was Liebeslied (love’s sorrow) and today a sister composition (love’s joy) is presented. I love them both.

I’ve been waiting for a time for Joyce and Carl to come out and the three of us go to Steak and Shake for a bite to eat and a shake. I could wait no longer…went alone and really enjoyed it. Having (hopefully) learned my lesson in regard to procrastination while producing my writings that are now being edited, I made a small start on writing my next book today. The goal is to have it completed shortly after the first of the year.
