This is the news from my corner of the world and what was scribbled in my notepad.

I've faithfully followed and thoroughly enjoyed this expertly written and classy blog the past several months. With intelligence, passion and sometimes-playful humour, Vince simply writes about life. His subjects range from local, national and global news events, to personal experiences. Whatever the topic, his always keen and refreshing observations are an obvious reflection of someone of conscience and heart who not only cares deeply about people, but for the world entire.
