Wounded

It's hard to be sympathetic for Canada Geese which have become air rats in many places.  This one had a damaged wing and certainly couldn't fly.  It's flock had moved on leaving it alone at a small beach/park.  I guess if you are a goose there are worse places to be left behind but it did seem lonely.

How'm I Doin?

Today was Ed Koch's funeral which was held only a short walk from the bridge that now bears his name.  If you aren't from NY, it suffered a long decline starting in the 1950's, and by the 1970's was literally falling apart, and rampant with crime and corruption.  Ed Koch was elected mayor in 1978 and not unlike Ronald Reagan, convinced NYers to get up off their knees, and fight to make it better.  His amazing charisma and determination made it happen.  Today Rudy Giuliani and Mike Bloomberg are probably better known and more widely credited with the amazing renaissance that the city has experienced, but truth be told, they stood on Ed Koch's shoulders.

Mr. Mayor - you done good.
