Again with the psychic Page-A-Day 365 Words-A-Year calendar!
Precogs are running the show! How in Hades did the lexicographers know — so far ahead of time — that this word would be apt for these times? Right now, every day about 5:30 p.m. EDT in Wash., D.C., the jawboning starts anew! Continue reading
A little foolishness for your April 1 now. Take it from Kosmo Kramer here! If we all aspired to stay in the shower for as long as he did, this pandemic would be over so fast, so fast ‘THE LIKES OF WHICH WE’VE NEVER SEEN BEFORE’! Warm water, plenty of soap, adequate social distancing — well, maybe not at The Y! Continue reading
This week we are in the process of converting our New York, North Carolina and Massachusetts factories from manufacturing ties, shirts and suits to now making masks and gowns. #BrooksBrothers

Sorry, but when you earn your high-school diploma from a residential secondary school that was founded in 1810 in a mid-Atlantic state, you better believe that Brooks Brothers, itself founded in 1818, is going to be a big part of your experience. That’s just how it is; there but for the Grace of God and all that. So, Brooks Bros., good job. Thank you also for not needing a big federal infomercial in Wash., D.C., to let us know of your efforts. Continue reading

The message here is not the main point. Rather, it’s all the wild accompanying physical gestures. Again, you ever see a person of true, confident, self-assured authority, say, Don Vito Coreleone, wave his or her hands and arms like crazy like this? NEVER! Maybe Sonnie or Fredo or Greg Stillson, but NOT THE REAL DON! Also, as to the words themselves, everything is always ‘beautiful’ and ‘perfect’. It’s Always Sunny in Trumpadelphia! Sorry, couldn’t resist. You, dear reader, are smarter than this guy, so give yourself a pat on the back. Again, as a horseplayer, as a handicapping-and-wagering analyst yourself, you know way more than this guy, have more native and applied intelligence, we hope, we think… Continue reading
Across all North American Time Zones now, good afternoon. Heading toward the bottom of the noontime hour here in Studio City, the cloud cover is 3 percent, the humidity is 33 percent and the barometric pressure is 30.01 inHG and steady. The winds are out of the south-southwest at 6 mph, and the temperature is 60°F. From the mild and golden West, good afternoon. Good afternoon now! Continue reading
Always a good clip, more so than ever… Continue reading
In our case, it was our mother who frequently reminded us, ‘Your health is your wealth.’ What ever happened to that old bromide? It seems to be of no matter to the people who talk while gesticulating wildly with both hands, and sometimes their entire arms, and at the same time blink furiously. Nevertheless, always remember: your health is your wealth. Perhaps if they want you to choose someone else’s wealth over your own precious health, go ahead and pull a Bartleby the Scrivener and just say, ‘I would prefer not to…’ Continue reading
