Expat, Yaddo Prez, voracious reader, art consumer, still mad with lots of folks over Brexit, even madder about many other stupidities. Daydreaming back and forth on I-87 and wondering where on earth we’re all going.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”
