I ventured down to The Broad Museum yesterday which opened last year.  It is spectacular.  Even if you are not a fan of modern art, the building and its setting are really worth the trip.  It gets crowded though, so study their extensive web site and plan accordingly: thebroad.org.   The Cindy Sherman exhibit is outstanding if you are a fan.  I will put more pictures up on my Flickr page, too.  They allow photography almost everywhere, and it is such fun to explore and shoot away, amazed. 

I had lunch beforehand at the upscale Otium Restaurant.  Very pricey, really above my pay scale, but quite nice, with impeccable service.  Don’t be surprised at the $5.00 charge for bread and mandatory 18% tip added to your bill.  You have been warned.  Very elegant place though.  You will want to dress nicely, dig out the good jeans!

“Genocidaire: A Twilight Zone Episode”

Once an accusation this explosive becomes accepted as fact, it changes the moral status of the accused. Israelis become genocidaires. Zionists become supporters of genocide. Jews who support Israel become apologists for genocide.

The Dark Side of DEI

It’s racist to hand someone a job based on skin color alone. They will be doomed to fail because representing one’s identity is not the same thing as mastering a profession.
