Rambling observations on books, history, movies, transit, obsolete technology, baseball, and anything else that crosses my mind.

Sue Grafton, RIP -- December 30, 2017
I was sad to learn that Sue Grafton has died. We were at Bay Books in Half Moon Bay many years ago and the owner recommended the first book of a new series, A is for Alibi. I bought it for my wife. We wondered what would happen when the author got Z. I suggested AA is for Aardvark. I bought her each volume as Grafton published it. This year I bought my wife Y is for Yesterday. Grafton did not finish Z is for Zero.
Grafton refused to sell film and television rights, and told her kids, and I presume her husband, that she would haunt them if they sold the rights after she died.
