The landmark reversal nullifies all previously lawful forms of right and makes it very difficult for Americans to make ethical decisions or be generally decent human beings without facing criminal charges.

You're right. This really does call for an address from the Oval Office, as it's the 2nd judicial change in the structure of our government in a week's time. Overturning Chevron, though radical & alarming, is a small hill compared to the mountain that is crowning presidents as Kings and Queens.

I love that everyone has a job-related title except Jack Begley. He is us. Just Jack asking or stating the obvious. I got dragged into this "Could it be?" thing kicking and screaming, but ultimately got hooked on how kind, good-natured and cooperative everyone is. That's the real treasure.

I'll see your Mary Poppins, and raise you a West Side Story, unless drive-in theaters count, in which case The Seven Little Foys (although I probably fell asleep in the back seat before it was over).

Ha! The Paisley Convertible! Saw that, although can't remember if I was expecting Sam Waterston but saw Bill Bixby, or was expecting Bill Bixby but saw Sam Waterston. Either way, I'm really feelin' the "Not too many of us left who saw that" feeling a lot more these days.

And how she and Cook rip my heart out with the assistance of Don Walker's strings on "(How I could have used) one long revealing letter." 60 years on, and still goose bumps at that moment.

I think I heard about that production -- the one where the director interpolated "They All Deserve to Die" just after "Yes My Heart".

Saw a very young Liza in Carnival(!) at Yonkers Playhouse. She was, of course, terrific, but not knowing I was seeing an icon-in-the-making I kind of wished I'd seen Alberghetti. But now that I'm here, as Harry the Horse said, I still wish it!

Do you remember Sandy Becker's "Big Professor"? I think if you stumped him, you got $5. I only ever saw that happen once, and the question was "How do you spell 'too/two/to' in the sentence 'There are three kinds of ____?"

The Examiner's generally not a source for objective info, but I've known Charles Small about 20 years & he may be the world's foremost academic expert on both historical and contemporary anti-Semitism. IMO, this is a must-read for college adminstrators. www.washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-am...

Never saw Camelot but read it in hard cover at the Central Jr High School library (Gwch CT) during summer school in the 60s. Just lost it at the end when Arthur knights Tom and gives him the mission of telling the story. Later read Hamlet's "draw thy breath in pain" & lost it again. Then "Hamilton".
