Today is the 122nd birthday of the writer Ernest Hemingway. Nobel Prize winner, war correspondent, sustained a shrapnel injury, was in two plane crashes (2 days apart), four wives, three children, notorious drinker, the subject of multiple postage stamps around the world and wrote 19 books and 3 plays. That’s a lot of life. The world is a better place because he was in it and still feels the loss that he has left.
