For the record, Isaac's Storm is still my wife's favorite. As she keeps reminding me.
Good morning, from eastern Long Island.
Lefse! Man that takes me back.
My wife captured this image of a gust of wind stirring the newly snow-dressed trees outside our NYC apartment just a few moments ago.
"....we should do something about it." That's as clear a summons for his loyalists to do harm as any Trump has issued thus far.
Nice story in today's NYT, p. 1, about the demise of the penny. Well done; written with a good deal of charm.

I wish someone would remind Hegseth and Trump that small conflicts have a way of becoming big and nasty wars very quickly. Can't imagine what would have happened if we'd had these amateurs in charge during the Cuban Missile Crisis. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Congratulations to all!

Thanks for sending. People found remnants of the ship for years afterward, but for this jacket to reach the Delaware River? Remarkable.
Thank you!
At last one of my books has made it to the big-ish screen! (Ethan Hawke in "The Lowdown;" see shelf behind.)
Not sure what "premise" you think I'm accepting. I agree completely, especially with your last line. Well put, by the way.
Just arrived at Union Station in Washington, DC. Troops on patrol in one of the safest spots in the city. At least they’re not wearing masks. Must be incredibly boring: aimlessly walking streets already patrolled by multiple federal police agencies, Amtrak police, and the DC metro cops.
I'm headed to DC today. Curious to see how the city feels under occupation.
Thank you.
Wow. Are you re-reading it? If so you may not be able to sleep.
Going to DC on Friday. Never been to an occupied city. I feel like William Shirer:
So often in my research I come across tiny little mysteries that have zero relevance to what I'm working on, but are compelling nonetheless. Eg this, from the London Times, Sept. 5, 1871.
