Okay, it's old news by now, but there were too many things happening.  Mets swept the Cubs in Game 4 on Wednesday at Chicago, 8-3.

Congratulations Mets! On to the World Series...Amazing!

The last time the Mets won was in 1986 against the Boston Red Sox on an error.  That whole year was unbelievable for the Mets.  Google it!

Rest in Peace to a New York Hero

“New York City police officers everyday go out and carry themselves on the street like superheroes on the street," Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association President Patrick Lynch said. “But the reality is, when we’re attacked, we bleed. When we bleed, we die. And when we die, we cry.”

Movie Review: The Intern

I figure any movie with Robert De Niro is worth watching, even a light comedy.  De Niro delivers and co-star Anne Hathaway does a solid job.  This is your normal fish-out-of-water plot updated for the millennial audience.  De Niro plays Ben Whittaker, a representative of the past generation company man in a suit who puts in more than 20 years with one employer (to make it even more obvious, his company used to print phone books) and enjoyed it.   Whittaker has retired, become widowed and decides to be an intern at an up-and-coming online retail company in Brooklyn staffed with millennials.  Anne Hathaway plays Jules, the founder of this successful start-up that is facing challenges.  Ben ends up being Jules' intern.  Not only is he the oldest intern, he's the oldest employee.  It's a pleasant movie gently pointing out how vastly the modern workplace has changed and the differences between the generations.  You'll end up feeling nostalgic at the end of it.
