A few days ago I received a plastic bag from “Big Tree”, aka the Arbor Day Foundation, with 10 bare root trees in it. Mostly they are foot-long twigs with a little flair of root at one end. Dead-looking sticks. …

What is our obligation to make “good faith” returns to an online behemoth? Going into last week I didn’t own a single bathing suit. This is problematic — I swim. At the neighborhood pool, at my dad’s, in my neighbor’s hot tub when they are out of town. …
