[October 21, 2023] “Old Red” was the best coonhound (a Redbone Hound) on this side of the Mississippi River, and I was happy to know Billy, his owner, and I often went hunting with him and his dog.

[October 14, 2023] I’ve had doubts about NYC Mayor Eric Adams, particularly his pandering to special interest groups and missed opportunities. But, I missed his Sunday, October 10th rally, where he made it clear that New York stands with Israel. His remarks were made the day after the Hamas terror attacks on Israel.
