As I walk through this dark tunnel of disturbing news and readying myself to debark a sinking ship, I keep an eye out for the light at the end of this tunnel. While looking ahead to that light is a worthwhile goal, there's no harm in using the lamp I have with me.

I've read Hans Christian Andersen in the past; this past weekend I binged watched adaptations of his stories and, in the midst of the disturbing news I'm hearing, I wore a smile on my face. His stories remind me of the good things in this world. As I prep, I will include his complete works. I'm getting the printed form because it is EMP proof and does not require batteries.

When the wi-fi goes down at backpacking hostels I'm the only one in the common room who can carry on reading.
The I-pod, I-phone and I-pads all come to a stop.
However I've found this amazing device called the B-ook.
The image doesn't change on a screen, but it has hundreds of screens. It needs no power source or batteries. You can throw it at a wall without harming it and it can even be used to light fires, insulate, leave notes....

What will they think of next?
