Who knew? There's a @WaltClydeFrazier eatery on 10 Ave. Takes up whole block. With silliest cocktail names, and "no return" cocktail policy.

He fired Comey because he's a #nutjob. Better to bring nut jobs back to USA. Planters: build yr roasting plant in Wisconsin, not Oaxaca!

I hope we get to a "jig economy" where lively folk dances earn U cash. When the average pay for a jigger is high, U can say "The jig is up." x.com/KenJennings/st…

Watched Sen @BenSasse interviewed on PBS. Uses same uplifting idealistic vocabulary that Sen @CoryBooker uses. 2020 prez race? Good matchup.

#AndrewExum interviewed on PBS said "Goodness Gracious" last night. I love revival of old exclamations. Comey used "Lordy!"--that was bliss.

I've thought about Roth's book a lot lately. Pres. Lindbergh much more responsible than Pres. Trump. Honorable harakiri at end of novel. x.com/KarrieUrbanist…

Toward the end of Roth's "The Plot Against America," President Lindbergh gets into his airplane and simply vanishes. Just saying.

@KarrieUrbanist I've been trying to remember how that ended. Thx. I'm consoled by fact that we lived thru Lindbergh admin, then I remember it was fiction.
