  1. DIBS, I got an air purifier (it’s impressive!), and we’re vacuuming more than ever (with our new HEPA filter!). So, we’ll see what the doc says when I go back and he reviews my secondary blood test results next week. I just don’t have it in me to keep the cat out. She’s like family at this point.

  2. I am sorry for Charlie Rangel. I always liked him. What happened to him? How could he make so many terrible errors in judgement? Is he ga-ga? Or is it old-timey hubris – like I have this job for life and fuck off? His predecessor, Adam Clayton Powell, got nailed on similiar charges decades ago. Charlie’s constituents don’t care – they love him.

  3. Snaps— “Now that Rangel has been found guilty, the full committee will meet to make a recommendation to the full House about punishment, which could range from reprimand to censure to expulsion.”

  4. Folks…other than Emerson, what were the rec’s for this year’s holiday party location? Needs to be able to fit about 50 of us, room to mill about, both wine and beer, and not so loud that conversations are impossible.

  5. My cousin used to work as a detective in the 7th Precinct on the lower east side during the bad old days when drugs were totally out of control and cops were shot all the time– he and his partner had a theory that the truly horrible criminals all had smooth foreheads.
