Nancy White recommended the Cool Cat Teacher Blog, which in turn impressed me with the first post I read. Excerpted in this post: "'Dr Brand...do you really think it is worth it?' No!

[His first patient.] Or an older memory of three figures turning hopelessly back down a steep mountain path.

Just the sort of lift I needed.
