Dare to dream

Short-list? Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, who served as the Republican vice presidential nominee in 2008, announced she is endorsing Donald Trump’s presidential campaign (Page A8).

If the prospect of a Trump-Palin dream team doesn’t draw former “Daily Show” host Jon Stewart out of retirement, nothing will.

Crab noodle casserole again? A toxic algae bloom that shut down the West Coast crab industry this winter is over and the crabs are now safe to eat. Still consumers are reluctant to buy crab, which has driven down the price (Page A9).

Smart consumers are stocking up on crab and on cases of Crab Helper.

Tough month for rock: Rock legends Sting and Peter Gabriel, who scored some of their biggest hits during the ’80s, announced a joint tour of U.S. and Canadian cities, during which they will share songs and musicians during sets. “We found when we toured together in the past there was a lot of pillow fights on airplanes,” Gabriel said (Page B12).

We know they’re both a little old to be trashing hotel rooms, but this sounds less like a rock tour than a teenage girls’ pajama party.
