Today it’s been raining most of the day. The weather report predicted we’d get hit in this area with the tail end of what was Hurricane Delta. I don’t remember a year when we ran out of names and reverted to the Greek alphabet for naming storms, though the conductor on the train I’m on said he heard that it happened in 2007. Me not remembering that can be a consequence of working full time in and not paying as much attention. The pandemic and the election make me much more aware of the news, and of anomalies. The storms have been tracking into the Gulf of Mexico and slamming the coast Louisiana, eastern Texas and Mississippi. I think this year they’ve been hit by four storms. As the conductor of the train said, “what are the odds?” Seems to me the odds are getting worse, and that every year at least one major storm slams into that region. Scary stuff indeed.
In Washington, the Senate confirmation hearings for a Supreme Court Justice to replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg has begun. The same Repulsive people who swore that there should be no confirmation hearings in the time leading up to a Presidential election four years ago, are now rushing with desperation to confirm a pick they like before they get booted out. Hypocrisy in action in DC. No surprises there. There's a saying about power corrupting - and right now they've got power and they are corrupt.
While the deconstruction of the Chase building on the Park Ave. side of the block continues, they Madison Ave. building is down and they are getting ready to excavate. Not even rain stops this project.
