Senator Grassley's meltdown with reporters on the Supreme Court

Chris Christie's winter of regret

By Jack Brummet, National Affairs Ed.



This quote is from a Chicago Tribune commentary yesterday on Chris Christie. They describe him standing behind Trump at his Tuesday victory speech:


"He had the face of a man who has used his third wish and realized too late that 'may my family never starve' could be twisted to mean that the genie should murder his entire family."

That crazy guy on the bridge

By Jack Brummet

Crazy guy on a bridge in Wim Wenders' Paris, Texas

I saw a photo today of facing apartment buildings today that reminded me of being at a party in NY in about 1978.  It was in Soho, or maybe Tribeca.  A very nearby building contained an attractive, fit couple having sweet and inventive sex on their bed next to a wall to wall window. Naturally many party goers were perched in our own window watching the show. Most people would assume this was just my usual exaggeration...but even KeeKee would vouch for this one. She was there. So--and this is a cool NYC story--this sex scene happened at my friend Tom Farrell's pad. I worked with him at a publisher in the village. Anyhow, we both loved Wim Wenders' An American Friend. And he swore he would get to Wenders somehow and write for him. He split from our job. Like a year and a half later, maybe less, we saw him as the memorable "Crazy fucker on the bridge" in Wenders' Paris, Texas. He was in five other Wenders films I just found out via IMDB.
