Sadly, only the cable stations carried Biden’s speech on the crisis our democracy is in. The three major networks did not! But they carried King Charles’ speech. And it’s been non-stop coverage since the Queen died on many stations. Certainly, its fine to honor her death, show a program about…
Recently at a couple dining places I’ve been to recently, the wait staff didn’t bring change back from the bill. When asked, they say, “we don’t give change anymore.” Sometimes it is a big sum of change, and sometimes it isn’t. But I don’t think it’s a good practice. It…
