Now, Here's How It's Done, Sam


Now here's an object lesson for the worst Mayor in Vancouver's history.


Check out this story in this morning's NY Times about the Mayor of Newark, New Jersey being a personal mentor to 3 teenage boys.


It is a remarkable tale of danger, challenge and hope. You will notice that Mayor Booker doesn't give anyone dope. He gives them his time and passion and support.


Imagine that!

David,

When I clicked on the link to the article, I ended up in a rather questionable website. Not sure if this is something that originates from your blog or something happening at my end, however, thought you would want to know.

I'll seek out the article directly from the NYT.

Must be at your end, because I just checked it and it worked fine. As well, a friend emailed me this morning after reading it through the link.

Hope you can find it.
