In Coming Days:

Photographer Fouad Haddad, born on this day in 1930. He died in 1976. (© FlaglerLive)A note to my Grandson: Well dear Felix, this is the day chosen for you–as so much has been since before your conception, as almost everything will be for the next dozen years, as most things will be after that–to be born into this, not quite our world… Read the rest here, as it proved too singular to segregate in the Briefing.

Certainly, there was no physical defect. By its perfect shape, its vigor, and its natural dexterity in the use of all its untried limbs, the infant was worthy to have been brought forth in Eden; worthy to have been left there, to be the plaything of the angels, after the world’s first parents were driven out. The child had a native grace which does not invariably coexist with faultless beauty; its attire, however simple, always impressed the beholder as if it were the very garb that precisely became it best. But little Pearl was not clad in rustic weeds. Her mother, with a morbid purpose that may be better understood hereafter, had bought the richest tissues that could be procured, and allowed her imaginative faculty its full play in the arrangement and decoration of the dresses which the child wore, before the public eye.

–From Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter (1852).

    That is not correct. Not yet, anyway. As of Nov. 30, there were 5.16 million registered Republicans in Florida, 4.46 million Democrats, and 3.6 million independents, 3.9 when minor parties are included in the tally. In Flagler, it’s just under 44,000 Republicans, 23,640 Democrats, and 21,445 independents, with an additional 2,300 in minor parties.

    @unknown. . . precisely how is this political cartoon a lie? Or are you just “mindlessly” lashing out at anything and everything that is the least bit thought provoking? Are you really that far entrenched in the FOX/MAGA “cult”?
