Happy Halloween, photo from Google Images:

Leave it to DT. Headline from nypost.com: “Haul of fame Trump rides in ‘big, beautiful’ MAGA garbage truck after Biden attack on his supporters.” LOL. If his presidential bid should fail, at least we’ll have the McDonalds and garbage truck memories. Also funny — how Dems are spinning Quid Pro Joe’s gaffe. Maybe they should try Seinfeld’s Uncle Leo’s defense. Photo from GI:

Here’s another amusing NYP headline: “Bill Belichick’s ex won Halloween with savage ‘Kill Bill’ costume.” Unfortunately, I was unable to find a good pic of it.

Duh! From NYP: “Facebook execs suppressed Hunter Biden laptop scandal to curry favor with Biden-Harris admin: bombshell report.” Only those not paying attention or in denial did not know this.

Duh II! From NYP: “Why are Democrats going to court to protect noncitizen voting?”

Interesting development, headline from newsmax.com: “Economy Blamed as Billionaires Flee China.” According to the article by Solange Reyner, “…dropped 36% in the past three years.” Millionaires are also leaving. I assume they have to sneak out.

He’s not called Slick Willie for nothing. Headline from foxnews.com: “Bill Clinton says it’s OK to vote for Harris even though Trump’s economy ‘was better’.”

Viewing several westerns lately on the Grit channel, 31–3 on OTA in NYC, DeForest Kelley seems to be in almost every one. I checked his Wiki profile. If my count is correct, he was in 13, not as many as I suspected. I find it interesting that the channel seems to have a much wider catalog than Outlaw, 48–4. Who knew so many B grade westerns were being filmed into the ‘60s?

Even a low return at the Anti-Inflation Book Shop on this beautiful Indian summer day wouldn’t have bothered me much after what went down--and how it went down — in the Bronx last night. My thanks to the gentleman who bought a Nora Roberts translation in Russian, and to the woman who purchased The Return by Nicholas Sparks; and to Steve, the poet laureate of Sheepshead Bay, who took home another audio book mystery: Jolie Blon’s Bounce by James Lee Burke.
