There was a time in the US when people decided they needed a truck in suburbia. They still buy them in droves and stilll think nothing of the cost of fuel during both an energy crisis and an inflation crisis. Stupid.

Maybe I should run this by CBS News for a "fact check"? I think not.

Yes. A great breed with personality. Sometimes too much personality. lol He can be a stubborn and mischievous little guy, but most of the time he is a sweetheart.

Jared Kushner is pushing back on a report involving a hacked iPhone, international spies and billion-dollar transfers from foreign governments. An upcoming book by journalist Matthew Cole claims Kushner, who is President Trump's son-in-law, had access to more than $2 billion in "slush money funds" from Middle Eastern leaders in an attempt to influence U.S. foreign policy. An excerpt of the book released Thursday details allegations encompassing Kushner's time as a senior White House adviser during the first Trump administration, which included a lead role in U.S. policy in the Middle East. Kushner had a major hand in negotiating key foreign policy deals that involved Israel, the Gulf states, China and Russia during that period. https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/kushner-pushes-back-report-involving-133251393.html Here's the Vanity Fair excerpt from the book.

Not to underestimate the freedom to vote and of expression, it is the accountability of people in power that is important. They should be accountable both during their period of office and when that office ends.

Friday night, eyes shut after driving to London today, I could be in a Harlam club listening... https://m. Link to video Such good jazz musicians, individually & as a band, playing a Nat King Cole favourite.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/317203317628 Madonna, Italian Vogue, Steven Miesel One of her best magazine covers. There are many of this quality for Vogue and Vanity Fair. Some of them are as good just different. This photograph is stunning when you see it apart from the cover, with its coloring unfiltered. I wish I could show you the photographs inside this magazine, but photographs are arranged in such a haphazard way on the Internet toda Everything is based on brand promotion, and you find bits and pieces. In the old days, all of this was categorized methodically by fans on sites where you could look at every magazine cover and every magazine photograph, arranged chronologically. Those sites don't exist now. I'll catalog my favorite magazine covers for comparison at some point. $700 asking price?!

Sweet! Better hurry, @steve-miller ... says it's almost sold out....

Nevermind. I missed my deadline. I'm sure this is right.
