  3. That must have been a misunderstanding.

  4. What is NHK news?

    If the misunderstanding was about Bernie announcing, that's too bad. But I'm not surprised.

    1. NHK[Click] is the Japanese public and international broadcasting system, similar to BBC. I think what happened was that they ran a story on Bernie's address, said that he is considered a potential candidate, and Miyoko understood it to mean he had declared. (We were getting dinner ready at the time, so couldn't give it full attention.

  5. RIP Richard Stuart
    clergy person, psychologist, spiritual guide, NH State Representative, friend [whom I met when I was 15 and rediscovered when my children were half grown], peer, mentor, bright light, compassionate soul.
    Dick truly lived until he died. On November 21st, he was at the US-Mexico border protesting in support of migrants. He and his dear wife Ruth then flew to DC for Thanksgiving with their daughter; but on the eve of Thanksgiving, when Dick got a pain in his back that he was experiencing checked out, he ended up having unexpected bypass surgery at Johns Hopkins. He was in good spirits after surgery, too. Then silence for a week and this news. I am stunned and heartbroken and moved and will always have a hole in my life. So many vital memories. So much to mull. ✨
