Though he is modest and self-effacing “friend of the Pod” V. Michael Hutchings has forgotten more historical information than most so-called experts can remember.

I caught up with him this week to get his perspective on the Russian invasion of Ukraine and its implications for all of us.

U.S. Rep. Goodlander Demands Answers About Musk Access to SBA Systems

Washington, D.C. – Representative Maggie Goodlander, a Member of the House Small Business Committee, sent a letter to Small Business Administration (SBA) Acting Administrator Everett Woodel, urging the agency to immediately clarify the extent of Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) access to SBA systems. The letter follows reports that DOGE requested and has been granted access to all SBA systems, including HR, contract, and payment systems. In the letter, Goodlander and her fellow lawmakers highlight the potential threat posed by the Trump administration to critical SBA programs, the agency’s vast network of lenders and resource partners, and the private small business data held by the SBA. The Members wrote, in part: “After last week’s attempt to freeze federal grants and loans, we are concerned that Musk’s followers intend to block critical SBA services from reaching our nation’s small employers.
Speaking of Words: Humorous English

Speaking of WordsBy MICHAEL FERBER If my title leads you to hope this column is about amusing things in English, such as funny words like “hornswoggle” and “discombobulate,” I’m afraid I’ll disappoint you. Words like those I may take up in a future column, but in this one I want to talk about “humor” in the original sense, that is, any of the four humors of ancient medicine and the traces they have left in English, starting with “humor” itself. These traces give us another example of the way languages preserve cultural fossils, like “horsepower” and “salary,” but in this case it is a whole system of ideas that few people still remember and fewer still believe in.
