‘Better Call Saul’ Season 3 Finale Recap: Adios

In a finale full of goodbyes, the show whipsawed viewers, as it so often has.

I do not have cable in any form.
So:
The practice of law is not a television drama.
Endings are not orderly.
A monetary settlement is made.
The story could continue.

I would like that last.

L.A.’s Avocado Toasts: a Guide

"It’s about highlighting what’s at the market in a way that it can be appreciated," says the Sqirl chef and owner Jessica Koslow. "If I was in New York, I wouldn’t be making avocado toast."

Eat it when available.
                 Demands will degrade it.

Megyn Kelly Interview With Alex Jones Draws 3.5 Million Viewers

The audience was the lowest of Ms. Kelly’s three-week run on NBC with a newsmagazine show going up against “60 Minutes.”

I should be able to ignore Alex Jones.

Lawyers Can’t Save America From Trump

The resort to law in a time of crisis is not new. But lawyers aren’t the best first responders to the Trump presidency.

The population has chosen sides.

Verbal battle lines are forming.

Lawyers are skilled at verbal battle.

It is late to save America from Donald Trump.

‘Is There a Man I Can Talk To?’: Stories of Sexism in the Workplace

The New York Times asked women to share their experiences about how they have been treated in the workplace.

If people don't know they will not react.

Beyoncé’s Twins Are the Only Kids Trevor Noah Wants to See on Facebook

The host of “The Daily Show” joined his late-night compatriots in celebrating the arrival of Beyoncé and Jay Z’s much-anticipated babies.

There is a false equivalence of these twins and the potential end of the Antiquities Act.

More Natural Landscape is not being made.
Twins are "easily and pleasurably" gotten.

Dallas Schools, Long Segregated, Charge Forward on Diversity

One of the nation’s most divided urban districts is a leader in trying to draw white and college-educated families back to public schools.

The Dallas Schools are only required to produce superior graduates.

Let’s Not Get Carried Away

We should be wary of sinking into the politics of scandal. It won’t make us, America, or this administration’s governance any better.

"Whitewater" had no content.
The contacts with Russian agents happened.
Any equivalency is false.

"One goes to war with the weapons one has"

At Don Peppe, Expect a Lot of Everything

The hallowed Italian-American restaurant is near the airport and the racetrack in Queens, but it’s in a world of its own.

If you wish.

Amazon Will Let Customers Try On Clothes Before Buying

Amazon Wardrobe, part of the Prime service and part of the company’s effort to expand in apparel, will let customers order three to 15 items of clothing without buying it.

This is not different from a generous return policy.

I will be unhappy if retail dies.
