Someday I’ll learn to play the piano. Are there any mysteries that use a piano for clues?

Republicans: We intend to use the full power of the federal government to wage a holy war against the “domestic terrorist network” of progressive organizations.

Democrats: We want to engage in bipartisan negotiation.
Schumer on government funding: "Our position remains this: We want to keep the government open by engaging in bipartisan negotiation where we can address some of the grave harms Donald Trump has caused to our health care system and help Americans with the cost of living."

Good point
Memphis is 63% Black, but not one Black person was with Trump today when he signed his presidential memorandum to send the National Guard to the largest Black city in America.

The Black mayor of Memphis, the Black mayor of Shelby County, and the Black police chief, were not involved.

In October, 1977, I ate oysters on the top of the World Trade Center in New York City. I will never forget it. I also saw Annie on Broadway and it cost $12.50 a ticket, if I’m not mistaken. Blessings to the families of the victims, may they Rest in Peace.

Does anyone read a foreign newspaper? I read the Norwegian American. It’s half English and half Norwegian. Many articles are English translated. I’m wondering. It’s a different perspective.

I’m reading the Venetian Betrayal by Steve Berry. So far, I like it.

My favorite book was Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. Who has seen her house in Massachusetts?

I’m considering rewriting a book I just published and adding a murder. I don’t have one in it.

I just finished reading the Nightingale by Kristin Hannah and it was really good.

Growing up, we had a parakeet for a short time. Has anyone else ever owned a bird?
