I’ve been getting phonecalls and emails lately (thanks Monique Toppin!) from students at the College of The Bahamas asking about Bahamian plays.
Being an educator at heart, and knowing that there isn’t anything valuable to be gained by simply telling students the answer to the question, as that allows their brains to remain off (there’s [...]

It’s about time, I think, for Ringplay to invest in the latest release of WordPress, which powers this blog. I’ve tested the upgrade on a test blog, and trust that all will be all right. If not, there’ll be a backup to restore everything as it was.
