ICYMI this week ...
A weekly round-up of the headlines from the Daily News podcast
By now, it’s Mother’s Day. I wrote this last night so it hadn’t arrived yet. It’s a great holiday if you’re looking for an example of a day where everyone celebrates someone who is actually thinking of someone else. They’ll celebrate me tomorrow but I’ll feel bad that I never sent my mother flowers. It’s for Mother’s Day why we have the saying it’s the thought that counts. The thought doesn’t exactly count but maybe it counts for something.
Anyway, I’m listening to The Catherine Wheel and I’ll be in bed in probably five minutes.
This week had more international news than normal. If you missed any of the episodes of the Daily News, or if you wanted to follow up on anything I mentioned, it’s all just below this video, which you will like. And you should appreicate this videot too. Have a great Sunday !

You can just tell your Mom sorry but you were too busy hating on Jews to get her flowers this year.
Or else that you would have got her flowers, but you spent all your money on donations to the local Jihad campus camp.
She'll probably understand, I'm guessing? Or else she will silently question what kind of spawn she brought into the world. Either way, you are both sure to come away with a greater appreciation of each other. Happy Mother's Day!
