Ann has great genes. Her mom, Carolyn, is a retired Texas judge, and her dad Jake was a Texas legislator. All three of them were and are great lawyers and public servants. So happy to see her out front speaking for her colleagues.

Yep. Every statewide
officeholder in Texas was a Democrat when we moved here from NYC in 1983. Some of them were progressive Dems like Ann Richards and Jim Hightower.

I get the point about Mays playing too long before retiring at 42 and know you're talking about his baseball career. But speaking as an old Mays fan, I'm sure happy about his very long life.

Fortunately, I can participate in democracy without subscribing to the NYTimes and paying it money to cause me headaches and to feel angry at people like Eric Lipton. Life is too short and I'm better off if I get my information from healthier sources.

Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults - Wikipedia
Books say he wasnβt diagnosed until after he retired. Type 1 diabetes can manifest at any age. Older adults can develop βLate Autoimmune Disease in Adults,β or LADA, which fits what I know of Jackie Robinsonβs illness. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latent_...

His type 1 diabetes led to his early death in 1972 when I was a teenaged baseball fan. I was diagnosed 11 months later, when T1D still meant a death. New technology has changed that. Grateful for these medical advances, hopeful for more, and fearful for the future of medical research.
