Week In Review - September 8, 2012

Finding quality blogging time has been challenging lately, but the wide world hasn't stopped spinning and generating jaw-dropping news and events. 

Mass shooting victim and former member of the House of Representatives Gabby Giffords (D-AZ) inspired us with her moving recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance at the DNC. Author Richard Bach, who taught us so much in Jonathan Livingston Seagull and Illusions, was injured in a plane crash this week and his son told the world (not ironically) how much flying means to his dad.

We acknowledged the career and retirement of American tennis great Andy Roddick with a video compilation of Andy's most hilarious, endearing, and enraging moments.

Lastly, we said goodbye to talented actor Michael Clarke Duncan who died young this week at age 54. We celebrated Clarke's life and work by sharing a clip from his Oscar-nominated performance as a death row inmate who possesses a very special gift in The Green Mile

As always, thanks for reading.
