@HillaryClinton So, Ms. Rodham, I'll never forget you in class once referring to and mimicking your Yale Law prof who sounded & acted like Yosemite Sam. What did I get from study? You as Yosemite Sam. Yup. Not bad. Jim Cunningham

@DavidGroff Long ago, in writers' mtg at @kennesawstate , you glanced at 1 of my first 2 self-published novels & your eyes lit up & said, "Elegant." So many persons/artists have said so much well about both my 1st two novels. Earl Althorp, Sondheim, leCarre, I. Allende, et al.
My correspondent & friend.
Somehow find the 3-episode mini-series "Isabel" on HBO Max. About Isabel Allende's amazing life. Magnificent. True. Available in English and in Chilean Spanish. imdb.com/title/tt14127520/?r…

The idea that majority Democrats had stolen the 8th District election from them vastly increased House Republicans' openness to Gingrich's cutthroat tactics. He'd been a backbencher since coming to the House, but less than 4 years later, he'd win the No. 2 GOP leadership slot.
You lucky bastard you. Great job: gorgeous wife stuck with you for life (Oy), and FOUR kids to raise + to pay too much for for DECADES! Now there's luck. My dad, who lost a bank in 1932? With four kids to raise. Yuk. Family? Not bad. Lingers longer. cc:@KamalaHarris
After much quarantining, testing, distancing, and planning I got my birthday wish and got to have all four of my kids with me. What an incredible weekend to turn 51.
