Houses, Not Farms

Anytime the headwinds got too fierce, my father would talk about selling what he owned and moving the farm elsewhere. At a family meeting, his cousins unfurled a subdivision map of the farmland behind our house. A family is no way to own a farm: It makes the land vulnerable to all the things families are vulnerable to. Mainly, time — it wears away at relationships; a hundred years on, brothers are now very distant cousins. Corporations have proven themselves better suited for the business growing food than farmers. As they say, money rules. Down in Delaware, or out in ... 12 Nov 2024 by Marilee Foster

The Pity Party

For decades, three friends and I have met at Le Soir in Blue Point for seasonal dinners. Since I had the longest ride, I stayed overnight at my librarian friend’s house. That way I could enjoy a straight-up dirty martini with three olives. Back then, I was divorced, and my librarian confidante was between husbands, so our conversations focused on money and men. Now money and medical are prime concerns. However, one of the quartet insisted that any talk about medical matters be limited to the Ten-Minute Rule. An “organ recital” wouldn’t leave enough time to laugh and to discuss ... 11 Nov 2024 by Denise Gray Meehan

Intense Views

The political campaign signs along Suffolk County roads declared: “Suffolk is Trump Country.” And, indeed, in last week’s election, Suffolk County was Trump country — as was much of the United States. His vote here for president heading the Republican ticket was substantial: 402,924, compared to 323,473 for Democrat Kamala Harris, or 55 to 44 percent. That’s an increase from 2020, when Trump bested Democrat Joe Biden in the county by 232 votes, and 2016, when he won by 46,619 votes in Suffolk County over Democrat Hillary Clinton. I’ve written about outcomes of elections on Long Island for decades, and ... by Karl Grossman
