Selling My Books on the Streets of Brooklyn 12/11 - Nature

Sign of the times: Uruguay has become the first country to legalize the growing, sale and smoking of pot. It is trying to wrest the business from criminals.

The picture below was in today’s NY Post. By now it must have traveled around the world. I find it dazzling, beautiful. For anyone unfamiliar with the main subjects, it is supermodel Gisele Bundchen tending to the needs of her one-year-old daughter. Kudos to the photographer for capturing this Kodak moment. If it’s posed, it’s naturalness is even more impressive.


The temperature in East Antarctica has set a new record: -135.8 Fahrenheit. Since this can’t be listed under global warming, it will go under the all-inclusive term now embraced by paranoiacs: climate change. Whatever.

It's not nearly as cold in Brooklyn as it is in Antarctica, but it's cold enough. Since the wind wasn't as strong as I'd expected, and since my car was in the ideal spot, I gave the floating book shop a try. I felt compelled, as brutal cold is forecast for tomorrow and another storm for Saturday. I sat in the car more than half the two hours I was there. My thanks to the gentleman and lady who bought books in Russian and to the young woman who purchased Stuart Woods' Beverly Hills Dead.
