39. Too bad Jane couldn't control the weather.

I'm 59. Been gone too long--to Mosquito Larvae Junction, Wisconsin. Didn't know about the Goldblatt Bldg. That was great of her.

Boss Daley only cared about Boss Daley and how he could stay in power. He was J. Edgar Hoover in men's clothes. His Khrushchev-like performance at the '68 Convention didn't help anyone--in the party or otherwise. His Stalinesque tactics in the streets were an abomination too. I was surprised when Richard M. got elected. He didn't seem as menacing though.

North and Narragansett, huh? There was an IHOP near there in the late 60s. It may have been toward Harlem Ave. on the way to Kiddeland.

I'll go see if Ray Rayner is on YouTube now. Maybe I'll catch a turtle race.
