Last week I posted about the Bumper Sticker of Change, which I saw while walking in Rhode Island.

Bumper Sticker of Change

Saw this yesterday while on a walk in the most pro-Obama voting state in the country:


What most amazed me was that someone was willing to put such a bumper sticker on the car. In 2008 people were afraid to use McCain/Palin bumper stickers for fear of vandalism.

Things have changed.

One of those photos which expressed so much more than was in the photo, and entered our consciousness. And on a day when we still are contemplating how to win the war against the forces of evil.

One of my daughters is graduating college today. And she has a job!

So one less tuition to pay, and she’s almost off my payroll.

It feels like 5 O’clock, all day:

I originally saw this video linked a while ago at Israellycool.

Now that it has gone viral (over 750,000 YouTube views as of this writing), with further links by Jeffrey Goldberg and an explanation of what it all means at The NY Review of Books (slow book day, I guess), I am...

The Great Lawn at Central Park, Memorial Day.

Almost enough to get me to move back to New York City, even though there are people.

Almost.

Many moons ago, when I worked in Manhattan, I always enjoyed early Sunday mornings, because there were few people and even fewer cars.

I’m in NYC this weekend for a wedding, and walked over to Park Avenue.

In the photo, the Waldorf Astoria on the left, looking south towards the MetLife Building (which...

It’s the Friday before Memorial Day weekend. No one really is expecting you to work.

So watch this video of the student speaker at Cornell Law School’s graduation earlier this month, it’s worth a few minutes out of your busy, important day. And you will be glad you did.

One of the perks of being a big time blogger (hah) is that sometimes people send me stuff for free. As in a free copy of Zev Chafets’ biography of Rush Limbaugh, An Army of One.
