REMINDER--SUMMER/FALL HNM OUTREACH PROJECT
REMINDER--SUMMER/FALL HNM OUTREACH PROJECT IN CONJUNCTION WITH CROTON CARING--ADOPTED FIVE STUDENTS TO ASSIST WITH PREPARING FOR THE NEW SCHOOL YEAR.
HOLY NAME OF MARY'S HISTORY CORNER PART THREE
Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses or worship--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.
HOLY NAME OF MARY'S HISTORY CORNER--PART THREE
Planning is underway for this year's Holy Name of Mary Feast Day Mass on Sept. 12th.
MORE ON THE ARDAY/CAMBRIDGE SCANDAL---WE SHOULD THANK MYTHOMANIAC DR. ARDAY FOR GIVING US A 101 ON HOW OUR INSTITUTIONS DESTROYED THEMSEVES
In 2023, Cambridge made Arday a professor. He became the professorial chair of sociology and education. These fields produce politicized gibberish and call it scientific research.Arday allegedly went above and beyond inventing results to fit the ideology. He invented himself. And Cambridge, the place that split the atom, discovered the structure of DNA and formulated the rules of soccer, played along.
The topic for today’s class is that modern classic: “How Our Institutions Destroyed Their Credibility.” READ MORE AT We should thank mythomaniac Dr. Arday for giving us a 101 on how our institutions destroyed themselves
SCAM ALERT
Getting the usual reports of a sudden uptick in residents receiving scam emails from PAYPAL claiming they are being charged for "virus protection"--DELETE THESE!
But there's a new wrinkle; many residents are subscribed to Mychart via their doctors---this appears to be the latest scam:
A reader says: Anyone else getting emails claiming to be from Mychart app stating that your account needs to be updated and you will receive a free care package. Got this email twice from 2 different emails. Put it to spam. Still comes back. Could be next fraud scheme.
JUST FOR FUN--AND KEEPING IT LOCAL--FOR BACK TO SCHOOL TOO
Why 'BACK TO SCHOOL' items of course...YES, IT'S IMPORTANT TO KEEP IT LOCAL WHEN YOU CAN---CVS, SHOPRITE AND ROBBINS have you covered.....that got some of us thinking....
Once upon a time in a galaxy far, far way, BACK TO SCHOOL displays didn't happen till mid-August. Of course, you needed at least two looseleaf binders, a pencil case, and a lunch box too---and while most of the latter are being made of (OH-NO!) that dreaded blow mold recycled plastic these days---and a far cry from the vinyl and pressed steel ones you may remember--some things will never change......(click on the photo below)
And that's the latest television or movie characters who often grace the "lids". Admittedly, not that many of us know who some of these folks are these days......
And now just for fun, check out some vintage lunch boxes at your editor's Flickr photostream----there's Bonanza, Lost in Space, Barbie and Twiggy, The Munsters, The Jetsons and more! Go to
