 Antonio Carlos Jobim and Neo Silva/ Photo by Altenir Silva On a warm day last May, Neo Silva was baptized in a glorious Italian church on Carmine Street in Greenwich Village, in the presence of his parents, Celia and Altenir. Seven-plus months later, in summer in Rio, Neo encounters the new statue of Antonio Carlos Jobim near the beach in Ipanema. No matter what hemisphere you are in, Feliz Ano Novo, with special thanks to Brazil for being the permanent heart and soul of Jogo Bonito, the beautiful game, and the source of Tom Jobim and La Garota de Ipanema. Wanna feel warm?

When our first grandchild, Alec was born 23 years ago, we were enchanted, you know what that feels like, GV and gang. Antonio Carlos Jobin had recorded an album with "You do something to me, something that simply mystifies me..." in English. For Peggy and me it became permanently linked with Alec.

Had a wonderful time on the #NYTReadalong Sunday with Sree Sreenivasan and Neil Parekh, talking about the Super Bowl and the great paper where I used to work. Here’s the link to my fun time. Thanks to all the nice people who sent messages while I was babbling. The Readalong is Sunday, 8:30-10:15 AM Eastern, and the link is available after that:
