Our reputation for fog was not developed in the same way. People who like fog gravitate to its muted offerings of color, sound and distance. These types are not the kind who promote or capture; they prefer to hide. So, many of the public, and even people who buy a property here, haven’t been told that fog, and not coveted light, is our predominate weather. In Sagaponack, a land fog rises up to meet the ... 17 May 2022 by Marilee Foster

The First Words

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.” Those are the first words in the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. There shall be no law respecting the establishment of religion — those wise men knew what they were doing. The founders knew their history, and they knew that Europe had suffered badly from religious wars in the past, which was not distant from them. The wars began with the Protestant Reformation and Martin Luther and culminated in the Thirty Years’ War, which took place mostly in Germany and killed one-third of its population. That’s twice the kill ... by Anthony Brandt

Still Out There

A decision by the U.S. Supreme Court involving a longtime Suffolk County person, Bill Baird, was at the base of its subsequent Roe v. Wade decision, which legalized abortion in the United States. Now, Roe v. Wade is likely to be overturned by a court majority. A draft opinion leaked to Politico, written by Justice Samuel Alito, sets the stage for it. And Baird, long a resident of Centerport in Huntington Town, who, after death threats and the firebombing of one of his birth control/abortion clinics on Long Island, has lived in another state, was expressing his outrage to me ... by Karl Grossman

Jury Duty Snow Days

I was summoned to serve as a trial juror for the Suffolk County Courts the first week of January. The hockey pucks were still home after the holidays, and I was busy with mom things. It wasn’t a good time for me. I couldn’t tell the commissioner of jurors, “This week won’t work — the puckers need me.” But I was allowed one extension and could request a week, within the next six months, to serve. I found some time in April when I didn’t have a dental, mammogram or orthotics appointment, and I kept that week clear. I’ve never ... by Tracy Grathwohl
