He left Brooklyn many years ago but Brooklyn never left him. His childhood was a rich gumbo of passions: the Dodgers, radio shows, comic books, 78 rpm records, stickball, punchball, movies, and of course the Dodgers. From these ingredients his life's main interests were formed: jazz, classical music, writing, and (still) baseball. Brooklyn also gave him Brooklyn Girl, who has been his best friend for more than half a century. One lucky kid.

This photo of a young Mitt Romney (center) and his friends needs a caption. Or maybe it doesn't.
O Kid, let us set our minds on higher things. Elections come and elections go, mendacity is an eternal force in the universe (like rust on cars or crumbs on the kitchen floor) but there's always Louis, Red McKenzie, Becky Kilgore, Dan Barrett, and more . . . looking at Mitt and his mitt-hungry friends will only make you depressed. Not worth the descent into darkness.
