Peter Vertes: I cook up this tangy gumbo in the wee small hours of the morning, pepper it with opinion, and dish it out every Thursday around breakfast time. A retired marketing type, I live exuberantly with my husband Joe and canine cohorts Xander and Link. Likes: snark, Manhattan, pop culture. Dislikes: yellow ties, Tucker Carlson, eucalyptus.
