A brief Post article focuses on TV ratings. The Stormy Daniels interview on 60 Minutes attracted 22 million viewers. Only 9.3 million tuned in to the James Comey powwow with George Stephanopoulos. It aired the same time as the Country Music Awards, which was watched by 12.1 million. Anyone surprised by these numbers?
Here's a great pic from today's Post which - astoundingly - has yet to be posted anywhere online, at least as far as I could find as of the writing of this blog. I shot a picture of it with my own camera, so the quality is terrible. My photography skills are minimal. It's the fabulous Jennifer Lawrence, not rehearsing for a modern version of Oliver Goldsmith's She Stoops to Conquer, but in a stoop to pick up her dog's poop - just like millions of regular folks do. I love JLAW.
From Yahoo's Odd News, edited by yours truly: A North Carolina burger joint designates April as exotic meat month. In the past iguana, alligator, camels, python, turtle and various insects have been featured. This year it was tarantula, a staple of Cambodia, where the spider is mixed with salt and sugar and cooked. Since the place gets only 15 of the farmed, organically raised creatures each year, diners fill out a lottery ticket. No winner has yet to back out. One said it tastes like potato chips. Here's a pic:
My thanks to the woman who donated five books in Russian, and to Mike, whose apartment is being painted, which prompted him to lighten his cases by donating about ten books. Most were his daughters, and several have to do with magic. Ira bought three of those, as well as another ten from the Mysteries and Myths series. Thank you, sir. April 17th and I packed up an hour early because I was cold. It feels more like late February.
