With curbside pick up, a seasonal garden, and about 400 volunteers, the folks at the Rhinelander Area Food Pantry are doing outstanding work to make sure their neighbors have access to quality food they need to be well.

I was glad to visit today to see their operation in person!

Absolutely cannot wait to bust down the doors for a drink made by a company whose unionized workers are on strike in a store that doesn’t want to hire minorities anymore.
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.

The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.

My brief thoughts on "Death by Lightning" -- the new Netflix series about the assassination of James Garfield, based on the book "Destiny of the Republic" by Candice Millard, one of the most entertaining historical novelists of our era.

Top of my mind: superb casting.

a big runoff last night, in New Orleans:
