Today I learned that Jack Smith is a Caitlin Clark fan and that Amy Klobuchar knows more about sports than Eric Schmitt.

Trout Fishing in America: Southwest Wisconsin addenda-2 Another Driftless stream side mushroom & a trout caught right under that hanging branch. Rained hard on Tuesday, water was off. Also… use crickets when you don’t use hoppers. #FunguFriends #myshrooms #FlyFishingFriday #FridayFungi
All these things are in the natural order of death, but for a trout to die from a drink of port wine, that is another thing.

Trout Fishing in America: SW Wisconsin addenda Back from three days chasing trout. When flyfishing in the Driftless always look for mushrooms. If you see a mushroom you will also catch a trout. Also use a hopper. #FungiFriends #myShrooms #FlyfishingFriday #FridayFungi
I remember mistaking an old woman for a trout stream in Vermont (WI), and I had to beg her pardon.  "Excuse me, " I said. "I thought you were a trout stream. "  

"I'm not, " she said.

Two messy-looking homemade wholemeal challahs on a battered old baking tray sitting on top of a hob. They are golden brown. One looks quite neat, and the other one has come a bit undone in the process of baking. Home Jewish New Year baking has happened.

Trump’s reckless, unilateral war has exposed our hard power limitations, frayed alliances, and given Iran aid in fostering terrorists’ recruitment. In doing so, he has quite possibly “opened a new chapter in violent extremism for which the United States is not prepared.”

A third of today's Americans are too young to have any memory of 9/11. For them, the 9/11 Memorial is making a new digital learning experience available starting tomorrow. We said we'd never forget—and part of that charge is making sure the next generation remembers too. 911memorial.org/DLE

Many of our former strengths, based on our close ties to America, have become our weaknesses. Some say there is no need for a comprehensive plan. They believe that we should wait it out, but hope isn't a plan and nostalgia is not a strategy. (PM Mark Carney)
