Safe Harbors and Pious Ears
Welcome to the weekend edition of The Mark Steyn Show. Mark surveys the scene near and far, from the Granite State to the Wuhan water park, a shorter distance than you'd think.

The Kraken wasn't all it was Krakened up to be, and was not written in a way that presented a coherent narrative (and please read the full motions before you disagree) designed to make a "sitting judge" cease sitting and move in one ...
