It seemed that everyone was doing it, so we gave it a try. Netflix that is. First “Breaking Bad”, then “House of Cards.” As late comers, we're still catching up with the old seasons.

In the "pre-monologue" of his first night as host of The Tonight Show, Jimmy Fallon told of how he used to beg his parents to stay up late to watch Johnny Carson.  I'm sure I'm not alone in being able to directly relate to such a story.    

Remember the days when handwritten notes were just what you did? You didn’t really think about it. When there was a personal message to convey, it was sent through pen and paper.

The world's largest solar farm is fully operational. Called Ivanpah, it has almost 350,000 mirrors the size of garage doors that tilt toward the sun with an ability to energize 140,000 homes covering over 5 square miles of the Mojave Desert.

One of the many Gotham aspects which differentiates us from other groups is our list service. We start with Freds List which in many ways is the backbone or "magic wand" of Gotham. The Amazing fruits of Fredslist posts are countless and you should feel free to comment as to your favorite. As Gotham grew there were complaints that there were too many self-promotional posts clogging Freds List. As a consequence we came up with Promo List which allows people to blatantly promote themselves on either Tuesday or Friday on a separate cost free listserve.

I was so relieved when Nancy blogged last week about enough snow for this season. I figured that, with the well-respected Power of Gotham, we would be free of the white stuff for the rest of the winter. I won't lose faith in the Power of Gotham. I must accept the fact that there are forces at work with the weather that even Gotham's might can't negate.
