Pizza for Everybody

This should go over big, headline from nypost.com: “NYC rules crack down on coal, wood-fired pizzerias — must cut carbon emissions up to 75%.”

From NYP: “US voters bitter about nation’s direction, 74% say it’s on the wrong track.” Gee, I wonder why.

Excerpt from an NYP editorial concerning the nuclear codes the President carries: “… in 2000. Each time a Pentagon official visited the Bill Clinton White House to inspect the codes, he ‘was met with the same excuse — the president is very busy, but takes the codes very seriously and has them on hand.’ Only when it came time to change the codes did the White House admit they’d ‘been missing for months.’ Shelton wryly noted: ‘You do whatever you can and think you have an infallible system, but somehow someone always seems to find a way to screw it up.’” Imagine if it had happened under Trump.

It seems only imprisonment will stop him, headline from newsmax.com: “NBC Poll: Trump Doubles Lead on DeSantis, GOP Field.” Trouble is, according to polls, the majority of independents don’t want him to run.

Headline and caption from foxnews.com: “Concealed carry holder confronts intruder in attic, leaves him offering cash: reports.” “Wisconsin suspect allegedly tried to bribe homeowner to not report him to police.”

From a fun article at FN by Emily Trainham, edited by yours truly: Here are stars who turned down or lost out on the lead role in blockbuster films: Jon Hamm — Gone Girl, Tom Hanks — When Harry Met Sally; Rachel McAdams — The Devil Wears Prada; Henry Winkler — Grease; Halle Berry — Speed; Bruce Willis — Ghost; Al Pacino — Star Wars. I can easily imagine all of the actors in the roles except Pacino, unless Lee Strasberg played Darth Vader. Meanwhile, the Rio native in the pic below is hoping for a sequel to The Mask (1994), photo from The Guardian.com:

Since the weather remains locked, I will put out only 20% of the inventory this week at the floating book shop. The rain held off and it was a full session. My thanks to Dina, who did a swap of Russian books; and to Alice, who bought Witch & Wizard by James Patterson & Gabrielle Charbonnet; and to my Constant Benefactress, who selected Sparkling Cyanide by Agatha Christie; and to the two gentlemen who combined to purchase six DVDs; and to the one who took home a pair of Reebok sneakers, size 5 1/2.
