It's a Wonderful Day in the Neighborhood

There's an old rumor that the late Mr. Rogers of the TV show "Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood" was formerly a Marine sharpshooter who bagged his quota of Commies. Don't know it's true but I sure hope so. [According to snopes.com, it isn't true. Pity.]

In any case, it is a lovely Fall day. Actually, it's the FIRST day of Fall, as it officially begins today. It feels more like the first day of winter.

So, like Mr. Rogers, I'm singing "It's a lovely day in the neighborhood" and getting ready to go outside with a cup of coffee and a cigar and continue reading my latest book, which, by the way, is "Left Illusions" by David Horowitz.

Horowitz is probably my greatest living political hero. What a mind, what a writer! And what guts. He goes into all those extreme leftwing universities and talks to all the little Marxists. They yell at him, throw pies at him and try to shout him down but he goes anyway. David, you da man.
