Another article in the Post reports a fantastic development. After months of intense rehab, three patients suffering leg paralysis were able to stand and take steps, helped by an implant that zaps the spinal chord, and by an aide at their side. Its doubtful patients will ever regain total movement, but this must give great hope to so many. Kudos to those who are making it happen.
I watched the series premiere of Manifest last night on NBC at ten PM. It's too soon to dub it fantastic, but it was very entertaining. My guess right now is the jet missing for five-plus years was abducted by aliens.

Here's the main cast, none of whom I recall having ever seen previously:
Mother Nature was fantastic today. The rain ceased just in time to allow the floating book shop to operate a full session. My thanks to the gentleman and two ladies who bought 13 books in Russian between them, among them translations of Stephen King, John Grisham and Danielle Steel; and to the Asian fellow who purchased The Films of John Wayne, a pictorial; and to Maria, who donated five books to the cause.
