@CRTejada Nora, I'm so deeply sorry. I will never forget Carlos's warmth, humanity and fabulous sense of humor. I love that a colleague here said they suspect his professional strengths seemed grounded in his happy home. These tributes say it all. A wonderful man, a great life.
@ATHigginsNYT A haunting piece about a haunted road -- and people. That the past isn't even past comes to mind when you learn of the historian sentenced to 13 years -- in September. The war on history and fact is chilling, here as elsewhere. Congrats to you and Emile Ducke.
@NYTimesCohen Hello again from a co-congregant. I just read your beautiful, urgent, important valedictory column, the capstone of so many others. Glad they build those Land Rovers tough -- we're all better for it. Bonne chance and hope to see you sometime.

… Barack Obama? Another age, but check Al Franken’s (yes, Al Franken’s) hilarious #WHCA turn in 1994, at https://t.co/TYqZm4wZdN (at 28:00). Last night was fubar. Paul Farhi @farhip of the Washington Post got it right (https://t.co/VGlEkZqnUo). In the end, though ...
… it wasn’t easy to play the #WHCA crowd amid Trump’s war on the press, and Wolf can be very funny in her métier. But can’t you see Sam Bee pulling it off? Or Paula Poundstone or Leslie Jones or Maria Bamford or Trevor Noah? Or, the master of them all …
