  1. This is from Friday, but gives a fair description of the security precautions for the top security classifications of documents that were found at Mar-a-Lago: 'Utter Baloney': Rep. Himes Knocks Trump's Excuses For Having Classified Material [Click]

  2. Thinking of the hollyhocks, the thing that has always interested me about them is that they are biennials--the first year they grow stems and leaves, and the second year they bloom. I am surprised they can grow in a place with such hard winters as Vermont.

    1. In Vermont, some plants, like Hollyhocks must be dug up in Autumn and stored until Spring.

  3. Sidney Blumenthal has some unanswered questions about the files seized by the FBI from Mar-a-Lago. [Click] I think this falls into the category of speculation inappropriate at this time, but it does give some food for thought.

  4. My presence in the 1950 Census[click] It feels strange to have passed the "protected" age (70 years after the census data were collected). Stranger still is that the houses remembered in Watts still survive, as does the first elementary school I attended,
    What I remember from the school is that we bought Chinese babies and the older boys used marijuana behind the building.
