CANCELLED

Colbert's show  show was cancelled. Another from for of cancel culture. Funny! The person who objects is the most powerful  man in the world.  Offended? Mr. President? 

But on the other hand the jokes were not cheap. At a cost of 100 millions a year. And he could punch only from the left.

Shutting down a show is an economic decision. But shutting down a comic is a crime!  and Colbert is the sharpest comic around.

 

One Thousand and One

Why does one read books?  I have so many unread books. Hundreds, maybe thousands. If I start reading till end each, I will live a very long life. 

to the lighthouse (red one)

 For the last four or five year I have taken bike rides to the Red lighthouse at the base of the George Washington Bridge. Close by,  on the Hudson's bank, I could see an arranged agglomeration of stones. It made m imagine a group of people coming out of the water ..Immigrants or conquerors. Stone people, from rubble.

Above is this year's image. Few stones still standing. The immigrants went away or were demolished.
