RIP Dick Francis
One of my favorite British mystery writers died on Sunday at the age of 89. His horseplaying around earned him a CBE from the Order of the British Empire. That he did.
"When earth's last picture is painted, and the tubes are twisted and dried, When the oldest colors have faded, and youngest critic has died, We shall rest, and, faith, we shall need it --lie down for an aeon or two. Till the Master of All Good Workmen shall set us to work anew..." ~Rudyard Kipling~
