New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has been a gift and a burden on multiple fronts. During the height of the pandemic he held daily news conferences, laced with common sense. Almost by default, he became the anti-Trump. Cuomo was much admired for his straight talk, as well as for his sympathetic chats with his covid-afflicted younger brother.
But, as we have recently discovered, there is back story and it is not to the governor's credit. While he was supposedly giving us frank news about pandemic losses, he was covering up or at least fudging his state's nursing home death statistics. Apparently, it was a botched attempt to burnish his image. It was not a good move since hard numbers eventually have a way of surfacing.

The much beloved radio station known as The Mountain (call letters KMTT broadcasting at 103.7) will be celebrated with an online anniversary event on April 10, 2021 from 7pm to 8:30pm. You can take part in the event by signing up at the Remembering the Mountain Facebook page here.
The Mountain was the home of radio personalities John Fisher & Peyton Mays, Fisher & Gary Crow, Crow & Mike West, and Fisher & West. The Marty Riemer & Jodi Brothers show was popular in the morning too.
it featured an Adult Album Alternative format. KMTT, while it was never #1 in Arbitron ratings books, did well with affluent adult demographics.

When Alonzo Ferandez opened his florist shop Our Secret Garden in 2015 he had big dreams. A self taught floral designer he wanted to create arrangements both fresh and dried, terrariums, sell house plants, gifts, home decor and art. The problem was space. The original location, in the walkway between 42nd SW and California Ave. SW in the West Seattle Junction was only 350 square feet. He did as much as possible in that tiny space and developed a reputation for unique work and friendly service. But that location while reasonably well suited to the shop's name also meant not many people knew where he was, and when the pandemic happened it meant even fewer people could come in.

As the pandemic eases, and children begin returning to the classroom, the time of the wild west for drivers deserves some serious rethinking. The "working from home" practice that has been a hallmark of the past year means people are cooped up, but still need to get out to the store or for a meal and often that's a time when people feel the need to take out their aggressions on the road.
