SOS Agent 86

Maxwell Smart, America is being overrun by KAOS — help!

Headline from nypost.com: “Let’s be blunt: Legal weed is turning New York workers into zombies.” No matter the time of day, the aroma is in the air, and the coughing is riotous. I try not to laugh out loud.

From the column of NY Post sports media critic Phil Mushnick: “… the Phillies’ $1 Hot Dog Night turned into a riot of sorts as the lower stands were attacked by franks, rolls, ketchup, mustard and relish thrown from the upper stands in a one-way food fight.” Is this more evidence of the sickness of America’s soul?

My thanks to Ira, who bought three Sotheby auction books, and to the woman who took home the first three installments of the Tobey Maguire Spiderman movies; and to the woman who purchased a hardcover in Russian and coached a young man through the purchase of a novel and DVD in that language. I am blessed.

I know it’s naive but:
