    France raises it's terror alert

    Oddly enough, French intelligence has been (according to my contacts in the NY uniformed services) a major source of information about potential attacks in NY. Which might be why NY and Paris did sweeps of their subway systems before the Olympic host city was announced. It seems the French...

    Terrorism

    Hmm, as someone whose city actually was attacked, I would have preferred they had continued to pursue Bin Laden before taking on any new projects.

    Terrorism

    from another New Yorker 9/12/2001, I went to work. On the subway. I had to teach. I had to go to work. I had to continue to live. And I wasn't scared. Yesterday, I went to work. I was sad about London, but I had to go to work. And I wasn't scared. You live, because otherwise, "they" win...

    Ah, there's nothing better than being able to look at them in the paddock and the post-parade! Pre-race gossip is best found in The Bloodhorse and The Thoroughbredtimes (the Daily Racing Form has been known to print misinformation!). Handicapping is a lot like picking stocks (except that...

    Girls banned from wearing skirts at school

    Too bad they won't let the boys wear kilts... In my high school, around 1975, there was a rule that girls could not wear pants, meaning everything from jeans to proper dress slacks. One young woman had an after school job at a rather up-scale boutique. She came to school one day wearing...

    steak! Peter Luger, Steak for Two, rare. With sliced tomato and onion (with Luger sauce), the potatos, and the creamed spinach. And a nice dark beer (because their house red is pretty gross).

    nylons

    This brought back memories of my mom's stories of dealing with NY summers. When she was in high school (very strict Catholic Brooklyn high school) they had to wear nylons, even in June. Now, June in NY can be pretty hot and humid. My mom, being the artist in her class, would meet up with her...

    Slots really are like crack. They design the machines to suck you in. Better to buy fedoras.

    gaming The stock market definitely counts! You should try the ponies; handicapping involves the same skills, and you can channel Damon Runyon at the track.
