  1. Vegas has a minor league club just outside the city. An MLB Ballpark on the strip just doesn't make sense to me. Maybe if they could find a way to play in the Sphere between Eagles dates.....
  2. There have been reports of dirt being moved around occasionally
  3. August 15 https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/august-15
  4. A little background from an earlier Bluesky post
  5. August 14 https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/august-14 Wherewere you when the lights went out?
  6. Is that the one near the Caviler Hotel (Marriott)? The last time I stayed anywhere close to there was back in 1978 on my wedding night. It was a Holiday Inn but a bit farther north. $25 "bridal suite" but it was also the end of December Have you been keeping up with the latest? Local officials are upset with tee shirt shops that advertise I Love Boobs t-shirts and Spank These shorts.
  7. He IS giving away Alaska....
  8. 2 out of 3 ain't bad
  9. I don't want to hear another Red Party official, elected or otherwise say anything else about reducing the deficit under this Regiem. Just more graft for their buddies.
  10. With speculation of a possible lock-out in the not too distant future. Think this might be a deterrent to potential buyers as well?
  11. Think the Twins are thinking about going the White Sox route. Try to find a buyer for a minority share with an option of full ownership somewhere down the road?
  12. More rewriting history. We're heading back to the era where we were taught that slaves loved to sing and dance and were all well treated by their masters...
  13. Gov Newsom is awesome at trolling...

  15. So she’s back to pimping again?

  17. I think I've told this before but I met my wife the day Elvis passed. It was her first day at the radio station I worked. She was a news person, I was kind of a utility infielder, doing some announcing, public service stuff, and basically a lot of full time fill in work. The station's news director had a bad case of laryngitis that day. The wire machines went crazy with the "world is ending five bells" Memphis, Tennessee..... Her first news cast in Roanoke, Va was the news Elvis had died. He was scheduled to be in town about a week later for a concert. Later that evening a bunch of us went for pizza and beer, I invited her. The rest is history....
  18. I grew up about 30 miles east of the city, or at least until I was 12. Most of the relatives have either moved or passed on. My wife had a conference there last fall and it was in line with a planned vacation. Fort Ligonier, Fort Pitt. I was 8 when Mazeroski hit the home run to beat the Yankees in 1960. The city is nicer than I remembered. I really like the feel of PNC, been there a few times now. And I still sort of root for the Buccos
  19. If only they’d arrest the REAL criminals in DC
  20. In truth the entire Regime’s goal is diversion.
  21. Trump “plans to turn the White House into a condominium,” names everything after himself (including Camp David, which becomes Trump Village II) and holds his inauguration in Atlantic City. 2/4 He is eager to go to the USSR to make deals with the Russians, who “really want the feeling of Trump Tower in New York.” He will “substitute the Japanese yen for the fading American dollar.” 3/4 The column appeared on Sept. 6, just after 41-year-old Trump had placed newspaper ads attacking U.S. foreign policy, starting speculation he was seeking political office. As far as I can tell Duggan’s prophecy has never drawn any notice in the online era. (He died in 2006.) 4/4
  22. Several Virginians who took part in the Continental Congress' first session that began in May are no longer there, most prominently George Washington, now commander of the Army. Peyton Randolph is speaker of the Convention, Patrick Henry is a militia commander, and Edmund Pendleton is ailing. 2/2
  23. The road construction around the new tunnel lanes is crazy. It’s still easier than taking the long way around
