Mayor Ras J. Baraka

Although almost passing out in the heat wasn’t fun, I thoroughly enjoyed asking Mayor Baraka a question yesterday at his first post-inauguration press conference.

I asked him about the Youth Mayor and the Youth City Council he just appointed. Was it just symbolic? “All symbolism stops today,” he said.

The Youth Mayor will have duties, an office and a stipend.

Okay. Moving forward. Thanks to “Google News Alerts,” I’ll be keeping abreast.

Diane and David

* Diane Sawyer is stepping down from the “World News Tonight” anchor chair because 1) that job doesn’t matter in 2014 and 2) she wants to be the new Barbara Walters, a job that does?
* David Muir (who’s younger than me!) is taking over, but that really doesn’t matter, because
* George Stephanopoulos is now “the voice of God” when real news breaks?
Gosh, I hope the young white boy is happy! LMAO!
