Mimosa, Bloody Mary, nice flute of champagne — or maybe a favorite tipple in your coffee. Make yourself one and join me at our own Algonquin Round Table, the spirit of Dorothy Parker abides.
Happy Sunday, dear friends! Here, let me start passing the flutes of bubbly. A couple of sips first before I extend my wishes that April 15th brings you little worry or pain. Of course, we seem to have the whole portside of the aisle poltroons screaming for more taxes because creating a permanent dependent-on-Uncle-Sugar class to keep them in power is their numero uno goal. I’d love to offer some choice words, but I dare not risk curdling the luscious ricotta and cream filling in the cannolis. Let’s drink, too, to the Artemis II’s successful flight and a hope that between NASA and SpaceX we don’t wait another 54 years before we get on the moon. L’Chaim!

Nothing at all “organic” or “grassroots” about these anti-America rallies.

No cops needed, they’re ACAB anyway. Social workers to the rescue! And how’s that working out?
BOSTON — In the summer of 2020, after the death of George Floyd and the protests that followed, the far left decided cops were the problem. Their theory? Armed officers escalate mental health crises. Send social workers and clinicians instead, and people would stop getting hurt. On Saturday in Boston, one of those clinicians was attacked with a sword.
The clinician was knocked to the ground inside an apartment building on Hemenway Street, steps from Northeastern University’s campus. A police officer was stabbed in the arm. The man who attacked them, apparently in the grip of paranoid delusions, was shot by other officers and later died at a hospital. He had spent close to 45 minutes talking to the clinician through his locked door before he opened it.
The clinician did everything the activists said would work. It didn’t.

I used to love wandering bookstores — Borders, Barnes & Noble, local independents — and looking over the SciFi/Fantasy sections for new reads. But it got to the point that if I saw “Hugo Winner” on the cover, I knew to avoid it because it guaranteed a book more about political lecturing than a good story.

I cannot imagine being a pediatric oncologist. Bless those who can shoulder that load, I could not.
