Well Alan's entry is a hodge podge of ideas and themes.
When I looked at his entry I noticed the date
April 15, 1937
1937 is my birth year so I was looking for something with my date of birth on it.

The New Yorker is an American magazine of reportage, commentary, criticism, essays, fiction, satire, cartoons and poetry published by Condé Nast. Starting as a weekly in 1925, the magazine is now published 47 times annually, with five of these issues covering two-week spans.
Although its reviews and events listings often focus on the cultural life of New York City, The New Yorker has a wide audience outside of New York. It is well known for its illustrated and often topical covers, its commentaries on popular culture and eccentric Americana; its attention to modern fiction by the inclusion of short stories and literary reviews; its rigorous fact checking and copyediting; its journalism on world politics and social issues; and its single-panel cartoons sprinkled throughout each issue.
Never knew of this magazine until our son left home to work for IBM in New York in 1980.
He lived in Kingston N.Y. for several years and one summer when we were visiting him we went to the city for a visit.
