The Writer's Life 9/17 - Another Day

I have no idea whether Brett Kavanaugh did what he was alleged to have done during his high school days 35 years ago. I wonder what percentage of males are guilty of similar conduct back in the day. Extend it to college years, and the percentage would be even higher. I'm guilty. Although my sins did not amount to even simple assault, I'd bet that if the behavior had occurred today it would be grounds for expulsion if reported by the female. Suppose the charge is true, and it is the only one ever brought against the nominee, who by all reports has lived an exemplary adult life - would that justify disqualification?

Mr. Morty, retired salesman in his 80's, always gallivanting about, delivered news that there was a fire at the Kings Plaza mall. There have been injuries but no fatalities. Here's a pic: 

Eight year old Hailey Dawson of Henderson, Nevada has Poland syndrome. Born without a right pectoral muscle, she is missing three fingers on her right hand and has an underdeveloped pinky and thumb. At age 4 she was fitted with a 3D-printed robotic hand by the UNLV College of Engineering. She has accomplished a goal she set - to throw out the ceremonial first pitch at each of the 30 MLB ballparks. Way to go, Hailey. (From Yahoo Sports & Wiki, edited by yours truly.)

So it looks like another long season for the NY Giants. As for the Jets, I have a hunch they will steadily improve. Right now the most impressive NFL team is the Rams. Expect topsy-turvy results throughout the 16-game schedule, with the most important factor being injuries. 

My thanks to the woman who donated two books that look similar to Stephanie Meyers' Twilight series, and to the elderly Latina who purchased one of them, Passion by Lauren Kate.
