Topsy-turvy world. Headline from nypost.com: “Jesse Jackson’s son blasts Obama, Biden for using father’s memorial to take shots at Trump.”
From NYP: “Nuclear war fear? The food that protected Japanese people against atomic bomb radiation in Nagasaki.” According to the article by Rachel Sacks: miso soup with a garnish of wakame seaweed. Trouble is the doctor in question and staff were eating it every day. They were only a mile from ground zero… And, in a similar vein, this headline from newsmax.com: “Fears of World War III Boost Man’s Bunker Business.”
I’ll be very surprised — and ecstatic — if the U.S. avoids boots on the ground in Iran. It seems DT is sacrificing the midterms for the long run attainment of peace.
From 27 pics that show something interesting that you may not have seen before by Asli Akalin, msm.com. I am one of the many, but I doubt the percentage is as high as that:
I wonder how many Americans will be disappointed by the following headline from foxnews.com: “Coast Guard seizes 22,000 pounds of cocaine in largest bust in 18 years.” Kudos to the crew of the Munro.

Boy, do I hope this is true. From FN: “Democrat brand in trouble: Brutal new poll shows party drowning in underwater ratings.” Maybe it’s just my pessimistic view of politics that foresees Republican disaster in the midterms.
From FN: “GE Aerospace investing $1B across 17 states, adding 5,000 American jobs.” Kudos.
RIP ‘Country’ Joe McDonald, 84. Born in DC, he served in the Navy, honorably discharged in 1962. He did a solo set on the second day of the Woodstock Festival. His most famous song is The Fish Cheer/I-Feel-Like-I’m-Fixin’-to-Die Rag (“One, two, three, what are we fighting for?”), a lampoon of the Vietnam War. He recorded 33 albums, two cracking the Top 40. He fronted Country Joe & the Fish. He performed for 60 years. Married four times, he was a father of five. Well done, Sir. Photo from Google Images:
No Matter how bad business gets at the Anti-Inflation book shop, I always look forward to it. That was especially the case today knowing it was going to be like mid-Spring. My thanks to the woman who donated nine more packages of adult diapers, and to the one who bought three; and to the one who purchased four books in Russian; and to Movie Buff, who took home The Mark of the Assassin by Daniel Silva. He recounted an excerpt from a bio about Sean Connery, whose interview for the role of 007 went well. The role was clinched when producer Cubby Broccoli looked out the window and saw him crossing the street, likening him to a panther, knowing he had his James Bond.
