The older I get, the more I love to see old stuff, especially written material.

If you're like me, don't miss the Whitworth University library exhibit (starting Wednesday) about the King James Bible, completed 400 years ago. I wrote about the exhibit Saturday. Here was the lede:

If you’ve ever said that your world has been turned upside down, or something reminded you of a lamb being led to the slaughter, or if you know that to everything there is a season, you can thank the King James Bible. Phrases introduced to the language in the King James 400 years ago are still in modern circulation.
