ICYMI---YOUR EVERYTHING CROTON WEEKEND NEWS RECAP AND VINTAGE CROTON TOO
MAMDANI--UNWELCOME GUEST--25TH ANNIVERSARY OF 9/11---NY POST ARTICLE & PETITION OPPOSING HIS PRESENCE FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION
Families of 9/11 victims want to ban Mamdani from sacred 25th anniversary ceremony at Ground Zero: ‘unwelcome guest’
By Rich Calder -Families of 9/11 victims are demanding NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani be banned from the 25th anniversary of the attacks at Ground Zero, branding him an apologist for Islamic terror whose presence would be an insult to the memories of nearly 3,000 people murdered.
“Our objection is based on his public record — his failure to meaningfully acknowledge the horror of that day, and his employment of, support for, or association with individuals who have minimized 9/11, defended terrorists, or even suggested America ‘deserved’ the attacks,” said Giovanni Galante – whose 29-year-old wife Grace Catherine Galante was among 2,977 innocents killed by al-Qaeda terrorists.
PLEASE NOTE--THE PETITION HAD OVER 9,000 SIGNATURES AS OF SUNDAY night--FIND IT AND CONSIDER SIGNING AT https://c.org/dyfVSFgrdW

IN THE NEWS---FEDERAL JUDGE DISMISSES LAWSUIT OVER 75-COUNTRY IMMIGANT VISA PAUSE
Quite a few readers are not huge fans of MSN BUT LATELY, they have expanded their offerings/tinkered with their algorithms---to include more viewpoints. It's refreshing...for some that is Federal judge dismisses lawsuit over 75-country immigrant visa pause
CHICKENS! PAST AND PRESENT
Every now and then, a former neighbor used to pick up fresh eggs for the rest of us from a local "keeper of hens" (and the former neighbor made a great Irish soda Bread too, but I digress).
Many of us LOVED using these eggs in baking certain recipes---the super-freshness of the product was a game-changer. For some things, the added price-point was nominal all things considered and worth it.
And we have to be honest: we love coming across a home with a well-kept henhouse, the local bird-flu hysteria notwithstanding (see a true beauty here). There's a nostalgic charm that defies description--a happy middle ground between the rural and the urban.
The new Croton.News site has a wonderful article on the subject---WHEN EVERY CROTON YARD KEPT CHICKENS. (Yes, yes, we know it's AI-driven, quit your kvetching or I'll pull out the delete key). SEE IT AT
