Art of the Day: A dinner in the vineyards. At the invite of a Burgundy wine maker, I once enjoyed a luscious dinner amidst the landscape dressed with grape vines, as we dined from locally made produce, the fresh baked bread of the local baker, the requisite mustard from Dijon and cheese from neighboring dairy farmers, accompanied by fresh fruit and vegetables from his neighbors’ gardens, and finished with wine made from the grapes of the vineyard itself, aged more than a decade in the French Oak barrels of the winery's own cellars. A most memorable way to dine.

Book Recommendation: Senator Nye: the forgotten Republican anti-war tradition.

Wisdom of the Day: “That in nearly every war it is the people who bear the burdens and that it is not the people who cause wars bringing them no advantage, but that they are caused by fear and jealousy coupled with the purpose of men and interests who expect to profit by them." Senator Gerald Nye.

Art of the Day: My dream office. A marriage of old English style study with futuristic vision enveloped by nature itself – the hard wood floors, old leathery chairs, delicate rugs, ovacular egg-shaped open-air desk, classic texts carefully bound in rising bookcases, interrupted by open windows embracing the sky, trees, and stars surrounding us, embedding the work-space into God’s creation, where the archives of nature map the eternal truths onto the soul mirrored in the many texts within and the mind’s inner narratives of the workspace itself.

Book Recommendation: Princes of the Yen by Richard Werner reveals how industrial policy rescued post-war Japan and central bank financialization destroyed it.

Wisdom of the Day: “Banks can create money out of nothing.” Richard Werner.

Art of the Day: Old books, the kind you can find undervalued at estate sales, or hidden away in new England antiquarian book stores (as I once found an original of Uncle Tom’s Cabin), or dusted deep in the cellars of great libraries. I began collecting as a kid, having to sell early when the family hit tough financial times later on, but my fondness for old books never left. The rich leather binding, the craftsmanship of the book binders of old, the delicate care of a bookstore owner or devoted librarian, and the buried truths within these texts penned and published from a different time and place, where the written word mattered, whispering to us truths too occasionally forsaught or forgot. 

Book Recommendation: War Is a Racket. The infamous text of General Smedley Butler representing the rightful protest against the war machine after witnessing the horrors of World War 1.

Wisdom of the Day: “War is but a matter of profit for the few.” Senator Gerald Nye.
