NYT downplaying again:
"In Showdowns With the Courts, Trump Is Increasingly Combative

Scholars say that President Trump and his administration are now flirting with lawless defiance of court orders, a path with an uncertain end."

FLIRTING with lawless defiance? He's not flirting, he's blatantly defiant, knowing they won't do a damned thing about it. And it's a very certain end...the end of democracy in this country.

We joined with other organizations calling on Congressional leaders to put people on the House Ethics Committee so that it can start operating again. Since the Constitution gives Congress the power to enforce its own rules, it needs to do so without delay. nbcnews.com/politics/trump-adm…

Several years ago, author Matthew Sullivan joined Dogs in the Nighttime, a Sherlock Holmes-focused book club in Anacortes, Washington, that meets once a month. He writes for Crime Reads about happens when they meet up, why the different members participate, and the many joys and benefits of being a Dog. "Reading can be full of contradictions. It is typically a solitary act, ideal for the non-joiners among us. Yet through reading, we can also learn to empathize and grow closer to each other," he writes. We want to know: Are you in a book club? Tell us in the comments if you have a club with a very specific focus, or an interesting way of choosing what to read.

We used to have a monthly literary coffee klatsch at a cafe, but it was suspended during the Covid 19 Epidemic, and did not resume after the epidemic because two of the members had died in the mean time (though not of Covid).

Here's a report of one of our meetings:

Many years ago spouse’s family encountered a very unhappy child hiking to Alberta Falls in Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado US. The child whined, “I don’t want to go! If you’ve seen one waterfall, you’ve seen them all!”
This has become a joke in our family, whenever we hike to a waterfall, must all chant, “If you’ve seen one…”

Today we were so blown away with awe we couldn’t say it. Cataracta del Toro, Costa Rica. The water and pool are grey from volcanic ash from Volcán Poás.
