SANG-FROID

I suppose the word at the base of the column is a family surname but in context (pardon the pun) it's still chilling. Did someone meet a violent end? Never ran across a person with that name. It could be socially awkward and get the children picked on or shunned. It would be even worse if the family was Irish and had red hair. Truman Capote might have liked it, though.            

Blood and Rain

.
It rained all day and all evening in New York on Saturday. Street parking is hard to find in the city, particularly in Manhattan, but this "emergency blood transport vehicle" found a place to rest in the downpour just outside the restaurant where the family dined that night. The choice of the retro-looking Chevy is interesting.
