Another one bites the dust...

Trying to perfect the Melania look to entice Donald to pick her

It's Spring Training for these guys as well. It gives them time to acclimate to each other and work out rhythms.

I take it the Hurr testimony is not going well and Trumpublicans are not pleased...

A bit more..

A little history for those planning to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence in 2026. On this date in 1773 a group of seditious legislators gathered at Raleigh Tavern in Williamsburg, Va to pass a measure calling for a Committee of Correspondence among the 13 member colonies... https://www.colonialwilliamsburg.org/learn/deep-dives/committees-of-correspondence/ Just one of those things we never really learned in school.

My mother will be gone 20 years late next week. I can't remember the exact day. I remember the circumstances and events around her passing. The same with my dad 4 years later. I can't give you the exact date but I can tell you about the call from my sister...

Unfortunately the judge in this case is on Trump's payroll. It will never see the light of day.

I think I lost any real desire to gamble when I was 12. New kid in school from a northern state. I bet a bunch of new buddies about $15 on the Yankees winning the World Series. They were playing the Cardinals. A couple of years later FritoLay big promotional line was "Bet You Can't Eat Just One". I had a $50 bet on that one. I was 14, my parents caught wind and tried to sabotage it by stuffing several bags of chips in my foot locker for Scout Camp. I was rooming with the guy and we agreed to call it off about 6 months into it. I've made a few bets on horse racing, I have the knack of picking one that's great out of the gate but gets lost down the stretch. Forget casinos, I feel like I just need to hand $50 to some random person and head to the bar. I come out ahead that way.

DJT was sent to NY Military Academy in 8th grade. He graduated high school from there.

It was also an era when incorrigible young males were sent to military schools if the parents could afford it. Fork Union was a popular place in our juristiction.

There are some really nice areas Southside, you need to explore around University of Chicago or the Museum of Science and Industry. But that would be considered Lake Front, I guess. Hyde Park used to be nice, checking Zillow it's still out of my league

I get it. Anything from LSD or the tracks east is the lakefront. It makes sense

I agree for the most part. I always thought the Arlington Park Race Track was a great location for a stadium. You forgot about the grief the Obama Library received from the Friends of the Lake as well. Where exactly does Southside Chicago actually start. Our time there was spent mostly in the western suburbs. My wife's job was in Streeterville. I spent a lot of time either commuting to what used to be Palwaukee Airport or the Merchandise Mart. Anything south of Grant Park was always "Southside" in my mind as a foreigner

Seeing reports that the Bears are now looking at a site in Southside Chicago for their new stadium. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10112525-bears-rumors-new-2b-stadium-to-be-built-in-chicago-south-of-soldier-field I wonder if they've talked to the Sox about going in on this dream of a sports complex.

I think I'm starting to worry more about Republicans demanding to use my kitchen than any so called undocumented workers.. https://www.waff.com/2024/03/08/madison-county-murder-suspect-now-facing-sex-abuse-charges/

Republicans and Democrats actually working together (on a few bills). I'm old enough to remember this was how government worked

According to the same folks who constantly dissed Obama for spending any time on a golf course. Biden ought to challenge him to a 6 minute walk followed by a mile bike ride and a putting contest at Camp David

And as the story goes when Jesus was tempted by Satin during his time in the wilderness he turned him away. When Trump was tempted by Putin during his trips to Moscow he kissed his ass.

Always sucks up to the guys who disdains democracy Is it me or just a coincidence Trump comes up with bond money when an anti-democracy leader visits.

It's a practiced thing. It's called the Fundy woman voice. She's been taught to speak like a good submissive wife and mother
