Whatever I come across, mostly in and around Woodstock, New York. Runs on foot and skis. An occasional poem.

Even if you’ve never seen a gray fox, chances are you’ve heard one.

You may have mistaken its harsh, guttural call for the caw of a crow or some other noisy bird. www.texasmonthly.com/travel/dont-...

You'll be lucky to even see the crafty canid.

This isn’t a coincidence.

Paging Dr (Senator) Cassidy for your comment.
An FDA vaccine advisory committee meeting scheduled for March to select the strains to be included in next season's flu shot has been canceled, according to a panel member. Officials did not offer an explanation for the scrapped meeting.

Why the but? Trump announced tariffs, stocks fell significantly. Is it because business writers, like business types generally, are in the tank for Trump? apnews.com/article/stoc...

New addition to the family! Aoife (pronounced EE-fuh). She’s about a year and a half old, so tiny and curious. We brought her home today from ARF in Beacon.

Today's @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social column is well worth reading. "Trump is acting like a king because he is too weak to govern like a president." @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/02/02/o...

Look closely at the first two weeks of Donald Trump’s second term and you’ll see something very different than what he wants you to see.

It wasn’t just financial analysts playing this game of “he won’t really do the things he says he’s going to do.”
Goldman Sachs, Jan 21: "Despite Trump’s comments that the 25% tariff will be implemented in 10 days, we continue to believe the odds of a 25% tariff on Canada and Mexico are low (20%)." Why have analysts been caught so flat-footed by Trump doing *exactly what he said he would*?
