If you haven’t seen it already, treat yourself to J.K. Rowling’s recent commencement speech at Harvard.

A friend of mine was telling me about this book she’s reading about how to look 10 years younger. I had to stop her at the first piece of advice: throw out all your t-shirts.
Sorry, I’d rather look 100 than stop wearing t-shirts. Back off. Not happening. T-shirts and [...]
