Christopher Fountain, you are a very sick man.Sad. Sad. Sad. We, living in Greenwich, are supposedly the group ” the rest of us” that you are referring to. I can honestly say, as a fellow Greenwich resident, you are not … Continue reading →

After a prisoner destroys sprinkler valve and cell block, Greenwich cops look into preventing such damage in the future.

New York’s Off Track Betting Corporation shuts down Friday, bankrupt. I dimly remember (1971) when this monstrosity began operations – it seemed like a bad idea then, and, it turns out, even a 17-year-old could know more than politicians. Of … Continue reading →

I saw retired Lieutenant (I hope that’s his rank) Tommy Keegan today and he reminded me, as I well know, that it’s Keegan, not “Keagan”. Tommy’s my only friend on the force, so I want to keep that straight, and I’ve … Continue reading →

Drunk hits not one, but two police cruisers at 3 in the morning in Byram. In my prime, I might have gotten him off for the first one, but two?

Philadelphia orders “German Christmas Village” to remove the dreaded “Christmas” word.

North Korea can produce two nuclear bombs a year.

Ferdinand Steyer, evil genius that he is, helped me assemble a basic potato cannon the other day and then put his mind to work redesigning it and delivered his creation this afternoon. My gosh! As Asher declared, “Ferdinand is a … Continue reading →

The wonderful folks at WordPress have given me instructions on how to add all sorts of neat-o – items to the blog, including restoring the search feature. I hope I’ve done that, but let me know. From the administrator’s seat, … Continue reading →
