Making a Simple Healthy Sandwich Our pal and Old Salt Santa rang the chimes on us early this afternoon. You know how these things go. We are proud to be consuers of good beef. Vic worked on a rnach raising Charlolais cattle for beef production, so we have some in-house experience in raising good animilas, […]

(Clockwise: portrait of Captain John Paul, later Rear Admiral John Paul Jones; daguerreotypes from the 1905 exhumation at the paved-over Cimetière des Protestants Étrangers; and the final crypt at Annapolis.) The Forgotten Admiral There is a bunch going on overseas, and America’s ships are enforcing sanctions and maintaining blockades. We will know more about how […]

This was not in the production plan but it turned up in the transition of MIle’s old MacBook Pro to the new one. The sandwich below is one of a string of outstanding roast beef sandwiches Tracy O’grady would do at her fabulous Willow Restaurant on Fairfax Drive in Arlington. Kate Jansen is responsible for […]

The Boomers almost missed two mornings. There is a reason for it, which Miles is still working on and not quite ready to launch. That was the matter of the successful test of the Premium Kratom Alkoloid 40MG tablets last Thrusday which we immediately followed by what might have been another attack on President Trump […]

There is a bunch of stuff overseas with the War and whether the hard line IRGC crowd in Iran will see the light or not.
