The original mostly muted Zelda Krup returns with chartreuse pallor and memory like a steel trap. Still battling woo, junk science, MAGA fascists, fringe theories, and pisseurs de copie. Achievement: Haven't missed a Kentucky Derby since I was 6YO.

In those times of darkness, we clung to the Good Book to nourish our prose, to relieve the helplessness. We had the mighty thesaurus!

It goes on around here a lot. Next to DoorDash and Grub Hub, embezzlement is among Spokane's top professions.

Finland used to be a communist country and not all that long ago. Just thought I'd throw that into the mix.

The wooliness of woolly bears supposedly predicts a cold winter, the future of CNN, return of pantyhose, depending on which brand of folklore one subscribes to.

More to be pitied than censured, maybe. Despite having a big chunk of the world's wealth, she looks as tho she's struggling with body dysmorphic disorder including anorexia. The Mar-a-Lago cult spares no woman.

Dead men tell no Epstein-Trump tales
When witnesses, whistleblowers and accusers die, it’s time to look at whether they have anything in common. Here is a list of some of the recent deaths.

In the dining car on a train with Cary Grant in North By Northwest, I thought she was so incredibly cool and ultra-sophisticated. Sad loss but what a talent she was.

The "Jessica Rabbit" segment of the RANGE Media piece has similarities to the "fairy lady" fantasy character in Babbitt. I didn't think some guys wld use Babbitt as a life plan, but maybe in Anaheim that's the road to the happy place.

Do people realize that RANGE Media's piece about the Spokesman-Review and Comma are straight out of Sinclair Lewis's novel Babbitt? So I guess Spokane *is* the city of Zenith, under a glass dome/preserved in amber since 1900. Also, Disneyfied.

Blumenthal: Tether is a crypto company that has a stablecoin known as USDT, and it is the major means of Iran avoiding and evading sanctions. What we’ve also exposed is that Cantor Fitzgerald has a major financial tie. Cantor Fitzgerald was owned by Howard Lutnick. It’s still run by his family.

The fact that a NYT article felt the need to mention the "Bermuda Triangle" in this report shows a level of dumbness I'd hope we'd never reach. There is no Bermuda Triangle and that region of the Atlantic is not mysterious. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/03/u...

Oh, yeah. That's famous, or shd I say infamous. Friends on the west side regard Spokane as quite a corrupt place and you have to pay "tribute* of a sort to be allowed in the reindeer games. Money is fading away as time passes.
