A "memo of understanding" between the U.S. and Iran. What does that mean exactly? For starters, gas prices should continue to drop, at least for now. Did you hear the one about the planeload of sky-divers that crashed? Unfortunately, this is not a joke. It happened this weekend, with multiple fatalities. The World Cup means lots of visitors here from other countries. What are their impressions of America? They like it, and they like US. Is there one word that you just can't pronounce correctly no matter how hard you try? There is for all of us, including a TV news anchor in Minneapolis, who finally had to give up. The Trump Administration is going after the big AI company Anthropic again. But why? That depends on who you ask. The NBA and the NHL both crown new champions this weekend, and in each case, it marked the end of a long drought. The U.S. Supreme Court is close to a ruling on birthright citizenship. That doesn't sound complicated. It is in the Constitution after all. But in this case, maybe it is. You have to be really passionate about running to take on something like this. Call it an ultra urban marathon, which took two years to complete.

The Knicks are Champs and the Hurricanes bring home the Cup!
