  1. Interesting that MAGA "Christians" conveniently forget Ester, Ruth, Sarah, Mary mother of Jesus, Elizabeth, Martha, Mary Magdalene, etc. They may not have been elected leaders (Ester was a queen). But one could argue they received as much "grace" from the Creator that a Blowhard pretender from Queens
  2. Really cool story. The Legend of Pinky Daras. Hopefully it's not paywalled. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5703670/2024/08/16/little-league-world-series-pinky-deras/?source=freedailyemail&campaign=601983&userId=213687
  3. In many ways Trumpublicans are throw backs to the belief that women are only good for two things. Babies and housework. I'm old enough to remember when the only "viable" jobs for women were teaching, secretarial work and sales work in department stores. It wasn't that long ago that my wife, who was a reporter and radio news anchor, was told by a general manager of a prominent radio station "No woman will ever work morning drive" at his station. Management jobs were basically unheard of.
  4. For some it was tuition and book money. Or enough to pay the rent. I remember days behind the Arby's slicer, smelling of french fry grease and Jomoca shakes at the end of a 9 hour shift. Took me 30 years to go near roast beef sandwich after those days.
  5. Sorry, can't help myself...
  6. So if "illegal migrants" are taking more than 100% of the jobs, doesn't that indicate employers are lowballing wages. Or is it that qualified people here legally are too lazy to get off the couch? MAGA, please explain that to me in fifth grade terms
  7. When the end finally comes, this should be engraved on his headstone next to his first wife’s final resting place
  8. Drill Baby, Drill. It will solve all of our financial woes
  9. I wish the judge would have done that to a certain old man who allegedly fell asleep in court many times in NYC
  10. If it's Thursday, it must be, hold on, I've got to check my schedule
  11. More like an HOA meeting
  12. Off the top of my head the reach of TV into Michigan from Toledo would venture into Monroe and Lenawee Counties, maybe Hillsdale. Not sure how many Michigan eyeballs that might entail. If I was selling ads I'd definitely look into businesses in those area.
  13. Fatty would eat all the inventory.
  14. Not hiding it any more
  15. The dentures seem looth tonight
  16. It couldn't happen to a better group of people <sarcasm>
  17. Audacy also owns WINS AM & FM, an all newser as well. (Think of the old WMAQ, give us 20 minutes). I just looked at the ratings and they're holding up well in NY. Not sure how WBBM and WWJ are doing, but as long as there is significant revenue they may survive to fight a bit longer. However when your stock is hovering around a dime a share. Full transparency, my wife managed the WBBM newsroom from the mid '90s until late 2000. She also managed WWJ's newsroom from Dec 2000 to about 2010. I did traffic for WBBM for several years while we were in Chicago.
