Excellent advice from a Bloomberg columnist on who to call first and, most important, how to profit from the calamity.

Mommies squawking about new North Mianus pick-up zone. $700,000 wasted on this project, when there’s not a friggin’ kid in the school zone who couldn’t walk to the place. Worried about traffic? Stay home, and let your precious child walk … Continue reading →

Commies go back to using their own phony currencies for bi-lateral trade. Screw ‘em – the laws of economics still apply.

Three teens, 14 and 15, long since given up for dead after drifting out to sea, found alive and well after fifty days. Undernourished and thirsty, but I’m sure their parents will fix that up. AND HERE’S ANOTHER GREAT STORY: … Continue reading →

WFUV (90.7, or WFUV.org) plays Arlo Guthrie’s “Alice’s Restaurant” every Thanksgiving, beginning around noon. If you’re of a certain age, it’s a don’t-miss tradition. Younger listeners are no doubt indifferent, but to me, it’s as important as listening to Dylan … Continue reading →

I like to think I have a genius for creative destruction, but this prankster has me, ten-fold. From DealBreaker.com Spartanburg County, S.C., sheriff’s deputies told WXII sister station WYFF that they were called to a Motel 6 on Sunday night … Continue reading →

Choate Rosemary Hall has another scandal on its hands.

Between last year’s deer slaughter and this year’s traipsing through the Mane woods, my wool camo pants are a little icky. The dry cleaners refused the job because son John, who wore them this year, found every briar and pricker … Continue reading →

Just as I was admiring a photograph of our first African-American President and his two lovely daughters “pardoning” a turkey and reflecting on how far our country has come since I was a kid, comes this story of a crazy old … Continue reading →

I’m having the most marvelous Thanksgiving because my niece Naomi is visiting from California with her incredible nine-year-old son Asher. Asher’s father was a Marine sniper in the first Iraq war and, later, a rocket scientist at JPL, who drowned … Continue reading →

And that’s the difference. Here’s how Israel screens plane passengers.

Brian Skinner is noted, as he should be.

63 Indian Field Rd sold for $1.750. Asked $2.495 back in 2008, assessed at $1.194. 6 Cherry Lane, Old Greenwich, sold for $1 million, on an asking price of $1.1 million and an assessment of $1.120. Pretty much a tear-down, … Continue reading →

The lady must go. Horrible as a subway bombing or a Bombay-like hotel massacre will be, it’s better to endure those assaults than a governmental assault on all of us. Napolitino doesn’t understand this and thus, she should be re-deposited … Continue reading →

Pennsylvania bow hunter takes record 875 lb. bear, but it turns out to be “Bozo”, a local mascot fed to such huge size by an ill-advised human. You do bears no favor by feeding them and eliminating their caution. On … Continue reading →
