I spent two days at the 2022 Illinois State Fair last week, attending Governor’s Day and Republican’s Day, as well as enjoying the celebration of the Illinois’ agricultural industry, the Midway, the harness horse races, the assorted exhibits, and even some of the food, including the ice cream. Here are my thoughts and the images I captured.
I was crazy enough to fly to Houston for the NRA’s Annual Convention and the protests that would surely materialize. It was a fascinating experience on many levels. Here are my thoughts and images.
I had the good fortune to attend today’s abortion-rights rally and march in Washington, D.C., which was dubbed Bans Off Our Bodies. Here are my thoughts about the demonstration, together with my images.

I couldn't resist a snapshot of Sandro Botticielli's The Calumny of Appelles in the Uffizi. It is a painting for our time. On the right side of the painting sits King Midas on his thrown. He is painted with jackass ears. Two women flank him. One is Ignorance and the other is Suspicion. Midas' outstretched hand points to Slander.

The church that is one block south of Trump Tower is offering sermons on the Apocalypse during the United Nations General Assembly week. Seems appropriate, given that Trump is residence at Trump Tower.
