A Lifelong Party of ‘Puzzle-Making Tomfoolery'
Jerry Slocum likes to cause trouble — with puzzles. A celebrated collector, Mr. Slocum, 94, has so far amassed some 46,000 mechanical puzzles. He began collecting at age 8. In one of numerous books that Mr. Slocum has written on the subject (often with co-authors), such puzzles are defined as 'a self-contained object, composed of one or more parts, which involves a problem for one person to solve by manipulation using logic, reasoning, insight, luck and/or dexterity.' Mr. Slocum's favorite is the T puzzle. Also known as the Tormentor or the Teaser, it originated in the early 1900s as an advertising gimmick, and also just for fun. A big capital T is cut into four pieces. The goal is reassembly. 'It looks pretty simple, but it's not,' Mr. Slocum, a retired aerospace engineer, said on a Saturday morning last summer in downtown Houston. He had just put a T puzzle on display at the latest International Puzzle Party. Mr. Slocum first threw this party on April Fools' Day in 1978; just 10 people gathered in the living room of his Beverly Hills home, where he still lives. Now, more than 500 serious collectors are on the invitation list, and the event is organized by a rotating committee. The destination moves on a three-year cycle among the United States, Europe and Asia. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

Mamdani's Video Savvy: Easy to Envy, Hard to Duplicate
Zohran Mamdani used three things to catapult himself to an upset Democratic primary win in the New York City mayor's race: a viral social media presence, a laser focus on affordability and an exhaustive ground game. His opponents' immediate takeaway? They need a better video strategy. Nine days after Mr. Mamdani clinched victory, Mayor Eric Adams released an online video where he pretended to be talking to Usher — using scenes from the artist's well-known music video for 'Confessions Part II' — to announce a summer concert series. He later filmed himself doing pull-ups from a pedestrian crossing sign, and, more recently, invited New Yorkers on an 'MTV Cribs'-style tour of his home at Gracie Mansion. (As a candidate in 2021, Mr. Adams conducted a similar tour of a home he owns in Brooklyn to demonstrate that he actually lived there. It was not entirely convincing.) Not to be outdone, former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, who is running as an independent after losing the primary, has posted videos of himself jump-starting a car and opining on how to pronounce 'Kosciuszko Bridge.' using snappy music, a cinematic filter and a new clip-on microphone. How're they doin'? The consensus: not particularly well. 'Literally doing ANYTHING but his job,' one person commented on Mr. Adams's pull-up video, receiving 2,500 likes. Two comments on the Kosciuszko Bridge video derided Mr. Cuomo, whose father also served as governor, as a 'nepo baby.' Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
