The grandkids are in town for Thanksgiving week.<\/p>\n

They’re doing New York things, like the Met.<\/p>\n

I always thought the Met was full of this:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

But it also has a collection of more recent, amazing paintings:<\/p>\n

I’m mildly upset at yesterday’s drop in tech stocks. And I’m mildly amused at some of convoluted “explanations.”<\/p>\n

Fact is we have low interest rates and will have them for a while, now Powell is back in. Hence I remain optimistic for stocks, and especially our stocks. (See the list in the right column of the web site.)<\/p>\n

We’re off to the Intrepid aircraft carrier museum this morning and the Harry Potter store this afternoon. It has a virtual reality show (Harry Potter Metaverse??), replete with VR goggles and a hefty price tag — $34.<\/p>\n

We’ll do MOMA, the Brooklyn Transit Museum, ride the subway and the Roosevelt Island Tram. And…. drumroll, watch the Macys Thanksgiving Day parade on Thursday.<\/p>\n

This will give exhaustion a whole new meaning.<\/p>\n

Tasteless but fun cartoons<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

I put these together before the kids arrived.<\/p>\n
