Kathleen Bergeron @etoil1066.bsky.social · 29/07/2026Reading the NewYork Times story about the situation of the people in Cuba brought to mind a song by Jackson Brown in 2008 called “Going Down to Cuba.” It inspired me, and in 2016, I got to visit.

Kathleen Bergeron @etoil1066.bsky.social · 28/07/2026@kaitlancollins.bsky.social A friend worked in a book store years ago, and she said a guy came in asking for a book called “The Source.” Michener’s book with that title had come out, so she took the guy to them. “What’s this?” the guy asked. “That’s what you asked for, ‘The Source.’” (Cont’d) 010

Kathleen Bergeron @etoil1066.bsky.social · 19/07/2026I read where Christopher Nolan produced The Odyssey totally in iMAX because it’s the largest format available. I’m thinking of getting an old Deardorf 8x10 view camera and make a short film, one frame at a time, just to piss him off. 000
Kathleen Bergeron @etoil1066.bsky.social · 15/07/2026Lat night I watched, on Turner Classic Movies, a 1952 film written, produced, and directed by Samuel Fuller about American journalism. “Park Row” is something every journalism student and every newspaper man or woman should see.

Kathleen Bergeron @etoil1066.bsky.social · 08/07/2026Back in high school Civics class, the teacher asked what the primary goals of the individual political parties were.

Kathleen Bergeron @etoil1066.bsky.social · 25/06/2026Anybody consider the fact that the state of Texas’ Parks and Wildlife Department also has a tall, spire-like monument with a reflecting pool, and how they deal with such problems?

Kathleen Bergeron @etoil1066.bsky.social · 29/05/2026I seem to recall that Biden said he was going to just be “an interim president,” not serving more than one term. What happened to that?

Kathleen Bergeron @etoil1066.bsky.social · 11/05/2026Interesting to read the articles about Ted Turner and his wives and lovers, and compare it with those with what we read about Mr. Trump.

Kathleen Bergeron @etoil1066.bsky.social · 19/01/2026Trump thinks he’s the most powerful person in the world. Canada’s new economic agreement with China and Europe’s reaction to Trump’s Greenland threats show he is not. He is discovering that others can get along without America just fine. 000
