A recent and very successful BBC production of Jane Austen’s “Sense and Sensibility” has brought to the fore one of England’s most successful authors although, her six novels remain popular throughout the world. The writer, George Eliot, has said that Jane Austen was “The greatest artist that has ever written.”
Jane Austen was born in 1775, at the Rectory in Steventon, a little village in north-east Hampshire, on 16th December 1775. She was the seventh child and second daughter of the rector, the Revd George Austen, and his wife Cassandra Leigh in an affectionate and high-spirited family. She lived in the area for most of her life and never married.

Remember those early days of the compact disc? The price of music nearly doubled to $15.99 because of the new technology. I recall reading that the increased price would come down once new disc making factories were built. Never happened. The majors (Warners, Universal, Sony, Polygram) got fat.

When it comes to Christmas and the holidays, nothing quite gets you in the mood to celebrate the way that music does. All it takes is that certain song to trigger a memory and you’re back in the kitchen with Grandma making sugar cookies or helping your Dad tug the pine tree through the door that seems to get smaller every year.
