Trump has no effing idea what he’s doing. Especially concerning tariffs.

I’m not a big fan of pumpkin muffins. Or pumpkin anything else for that matter. But since it’s now the season, here’s my attempt at pumpkin chocolate chip muffins. Reasonably good, with more of a chocolate taste than pumpkin. Which is what I was looking for.

This one has been on YouTube for about a decade, and it’s really entertaining. Even more so if you like old movies.

Fifty years ago today a rather large ship went down in a big Lake Superior storm. All 29 lives on the board were lost.

The Dodgers are giving up. They’re bringing in Blake Treinen to pitch the top of the 9th.

Pennsylvania has an important Supreme Court race coming up on Tuesday, November 4. If you live in the Keystone State, or know someone who does, vote YES to retain three justices who will protect your fundamental rights and freedoms.

Fifty years ago this week…

In the chilly North Country of New York State today. Some splendid autumn colors here, but today’s main attraction was a visit to Chazy Orchards, just to the northeast of Plattsburgh. They have the world’s largest orchard of McIntosh apples. My favorite kind of apple!

I’m thinking Blake Treinen must have some kind of incriminating stuff on Dodgers Manager Dave Roberts. Why else would Treinen be the reliever of choice when everybody knows that no Dodger lead is safe with Treinen on the mound?

This past weekend’s DeepSouthCon, in N’awlins, featured Cory Doctorow as Writer Guest of Honor. A great speaker, though his vision of the near future is not optimistic. He’s written a new book titled Enshitification that pretty well describes it.

The oven seems to be cooperating today so let’s make up a batch of easy peasy cake mix chocolate chip cookies. I’m counting the minutes until they’ll be cool enough to sample.

Watching Trump bloviating on the national news this evening. His spray tan looks dayglow orange in color. Just realized he’s the same color as Homer Simpson.

I’ve lived in this house 29 and a half years. And I’m *still* getting mail for a Joseph Freedman. This has been happening off and on for the entire duration.

But what makes this really bizarre is that Freedman is not the guy who lived here before me.
