@johnfugelsang.bsky.social Finished your book last night. As someone raised in a religious (Presbyterian) home, but no longer a believer, you perfectly explained what about Jesus' teachings still resonates with me and why the current crop of RW "Christians" are clueless about his message. Bravo sir!

Lutnick on his meetings with EU leaders: "The idea is, 'Come on guys, embrace the ideas and the model of the Trump administration and you'll get a trillion of investment here.' So we're trying to teach them, encourage them to follow the Trump lead."

I lived and breathed movies and a friend's brother was working in NY in the film business, and he simply said to me, "you could do this work." So I moved to New York. Within two years, Martin Scorsese was recommending movies for me to see.

Everybody was kung fu fighting
Those cats were fast as lightning
In fact, it was a little bit frightening
But they fought with expert timing
There were funky China men from funky Chinatown
They were chopping them up, they were chopping them down

THE BEAR'S NAME WAS KUMMA for God's sake!
Almost as soon as a consumer advocacy group began testing an A.I.-enabled toy bear, trouble began. Instead of chatting about homework or bedtime, testers said it sometimes spoke of knives and sexual topics. They warned that toys like it could allow children to stray into inappropriate exchanges.
A.I. Toy Bear Speaks of Sex, Knives and Pills, Consumer Group Warns
The chatter left startled adults unsure whether they heard correctly. Testers warned that interactive toys like this one could allow children to stray into inappropriate exchanges.

Without a doubt “The Race Beat” which won the Pulitzer.
Also, “And the Band Played On” which reads like a mystery thriller.

Anecdotal, but, the hotels in Ireland generally are better than the hotels in Scotland. Except for the one in Clifden, which was shite.

Dinner at a bar/pub in Doolin Ireland. 7 Americans at the bar (2 groups). Eventually an Irish gentleman sat down on a free stool between us. As my wife and I got up to leave, I apologized for him being surrounded by a bunch of Yanks. His perfect reply: "It could be worse, I could be a Yank."
