Today at the Editor’s glance: The Flagler Woman’s Club invites you to join us in celebrating the brave men and women of the Flagler Beach Police Department at our Pancake Breakfast on December 11 from 9-11 at our clubhouse at 1524 S Central Ave, Flagler Beach. $5 gets you pancakes, links, coffee, juice or iced tea. Children can decorate a cookie with a cop. Donate an unwrapped gift for a grown up and get a raffle ticket. Proceeds go to the Flagler Beach Police Department. For more information call Barbara at 215-209-9332 or Mary at 386-569-7813. Palm Coast Starlight Festival: Celebrate the holiday season with your friends and neighbors at the City of Palm Coast’s Starlight Festival in Central Park at 975 Central Avenue, Dec. 11 from 4 to 9 p.m.. The Starlight Festival will look a little different from previous years. Instead of a parade, the floats will park along Central Park; you can view the floats at your leisure while you merrily stroll. The new layout will only require one street to be closed and will give visitors the freedom to come for the fun and leave when they are done. Santa will still be there – be sure to bring your camera for pictures with Santa! Darlene Love at the Flagler Auditorium for a Christmas Show: Darlene Love brings her Rocking Christmas Show to the Flagler Auditorium on Saturday, Dec. 11 at 7:30 p.m. Love has a long career dating back to her days as a background singer for many huge artists like Elvis Presley. And here’s Love in that unforgettable SNL skit:

    Reading your site and reading more about what I read is a great enjoyment, informative and useful. Thank you.

    The lagging coma led me on a search to know what came after it. I believe it was thus, “…a 1977 Harper’s essay by Edward Abbey…”
    — The Proper Edge of the Sky: The High Plateau Country of Utah by Edward A. Geary
    https://www.google.com/search?q=professor+Edward+Geary

    I recommend the company of Mr. Abbey, and professor Geary too.

    Concerning the cartoon,

    Just another example of sinful human nature seeking to take advantage of every situation for personal benefit, so… well meaning programs will always be abused and manipulated for personal gain.
