"Yesterday's weirdness is tomorrow's reason why." Chapter title in Hunter Thompson's new "memoir."
This story makes me think, sadly, of all the immigrants -- legal and not so legal -- working the breakfast shift at "Windows on the World" the morning of September 11, 2001. Immigration & Naturalization, along with the Dept. of Justice, have disturbing priorities and a strange perspective on recent history.
The weather is awful (50 degrees on Memorial Day weekend?!). The Yanks are a half game out of first. Bush is still president.
Tomorrow's NY Times Magazine has what looks like a ghastly tale of campus conservatives at today's universities. I haven't read it; the cover photo is chilling enough.
