MARK OSHINSKIE--A BRIEF HISTORY OF STOLEN LIVES

MARK OSHINSKIE--A BRIEF HISTORY OF STOLEN LIVES---------On the third anniversary of the worst exercise of public policy in American history, and while most people would now like to forget the pandemic response so they can act as if they weren’t accomplices to it, I present the following, concise retrospective: 

Scientifically illiterate, germophobic Trump panicked while the Democrats and a complicit media used phony statistics and hospital videos to scare people. 

Although perhaps no healthy people under 70 died “of Covid” and nearly all those infected and over 70 survived, many believed “the virus” was a universal, lethal threat. 

The vast majority of those said to have died from a virus really died of old age, non-Covid illnesses, medical errors or despair born of isolation. 

“Experts” prescribed stay-at-home orders, leaky masks and wildly inaccurate tests.  MORE AT A Brief History of Stolen Lives ⋆ Brownstone Institute

A LITTLE NORTH RIVERSIDE CROTON HISTORY: A BARBER SHOP, THE SIDECAR & MORE

UPDATE: THE SIDECAR CLOSED IN APRIL 2017; the site is now part of The Tavern.

Welcome to The New Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

By special request:  

We're delighted to bring you this photo of 39 N. Riverside Avenue--now home to The Sidecar--but back then the local barber shop. It comes from Theodore Simone (brother to Thomas Simone of Croton Historical Society fame!) He was in Croton last week, popped into The Sidecar and....

"The food was excellent, the decor was wonderfully eclectic and the service couldn't have been friendlier. I was fortunate to have the opportunity to have a long chat with Lynn, the proprietor. The cafe is on the site of what once was my paternal grandfather's barbershop from 1920 until his death in 1941. (It remained in business until the fifties by his partner and brother, Frank.) Though I have no memories of the time when it was open and we were not allowed to go into the vacant store when visiting my grandmother who lived above, I did manage to sneak in a couple times in my childhood to explore. Being able to enjoy a meal in the very place my grandfather Antonio once stood cutting hair was not the kind of experience I encounter daily. I gave Lynn this picture of the shop which she said she would frame and hang in her store. I would encourage you to stop by and enjoy the atmosphere and the food anytime. (I was happy to see that some of the beadboard is even original to the barbershop!)"
