"Who?" I asked my nearly 106-year-old mother, who was calling from Forest Trace, the retirement community in South Florida where she has lived for almost 20 years.
"Chris Crispy."
"I missed him. I know he had a news conference to talk about--"
"The bridge."
"Yes, the George Washington."
"How his people closed it to get revenge against the mayor who didn't support him for election."
"Of Fort Lee."
"That's the place."
