de Blasio's Last Days

Is it too late? 

Can Mayor-elect Adams and the New York City Police Department save NYC?

P.S. The New York Post's headline writers will miss the outgoing mayor. Sort of . . .

Dash for Cash

In our Smash and Grab era, what could go wrong with the Sioux City Stampede hockey team's event to provide cash to teachers for school supplies?

The Sioux City Stampede hockey team apologized for Dash for Cash: "Although our intent was to provide a positive and fun experience for teachers, we can see how it appears to be degrading and insulting towards the participating teachers and the teaching profession as a whole."

Next year they'll give Sioux Falls hockey fans the teachers' event they really want – Fight for Cash.

War!

"Yesterday, December 7, 1941 – a date which will live in infamy – the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by the naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan." ~ President Franklin D. Roosevelt

 

A Winter of Old Age

Art and poem by Harry Seymour.

Deck's all but empty

There's a chill in the air

As dancing clouds above

Float ghostly images

To nature's blues

No longer here

Those hibernating souls

With haunting voices

Of shivering warmth

Stir thoughts of fate

Irreverisbly linked

To a winter of old age

There's no antidote

For the inevitable

Fallen leaves

Of composts on graves

With winter repasts

Delayed 'til spring

When Nature's birthplace

For the life cycle reprise

Is a living continuum

Where hope resides

And the fallen leaf

Never really dies.
