  1. When I see them referred with that phrase, I want to jump through my screen and scream at them. Children. They were groomed. And they were children. I’m tired of being this angry. Where have the normal people gone in this government? Trying to exist in this kakistocracy becomes more impossible and more exhausting every day.
  2. That he did the hosting duties for this show is, imo, so terribly wrong. That Stephen Miller was his guest is despicable. Good lord. We are staring into the abyss.
  3. I’d kill for a package of Mallomars.
  4. But I’m sure ICE hires only the best people! The smartest! they’re not in it for the bonus money! They’re Patriots doing their patriotic duty joining ICE, and they’re always educated! They know all about things! Come on. Just like their fearless leader, the orange menace….. Stupidity is preferred. Ignorance is preferred. Cruelty is the point. Who can be surprised by any of this? Absolutely no one.
  5. It’s funny. I needed a chuckle.
  6. Copied from a friend of mine. (Not sure where she may have seen&copied) ============================ Here is how you, personally, can help reduce the temperature in the country, and move us collectively away from the political extremes: the next time you plan to listen to a podcast, turn on music instead. The next time you plan to scroll social media before bed, read a fiction book instead. The next time you plan to turn on cable news, go outside and breathe in fresh air for 15 minutes. And then make those things a habit at least once or twice a week for the foreseeable future. Our algorithms are killing us. Quite literally.
  7. Listen, I’ve watched the Yankees bullpen blow leads in the seventh eighth and ninth innings this year, stay tuned for the whole game, because I’m telling you it ain’t over till it’s over. (Borrowed that for my old Paisan Yogi Berra) on the other hand, I am done for the night with baseball. Aaron Judge has just moved in to a tie with Joe DiMaggio for fourth on the all-time Yankee Homer’s list. I don’t need to see anymore tonight. Ciao, guys.
  8. I can’t imagine what it’s been like for him to go through life with that name. Lol. I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say that my team is going to pull one game out of this series and tonight’s the game. Although as in previous two nights, I won’t be watching the game after about the third ending anyway. So I’ll have to find out in the morning whether or not my prediction comes true. have a good night, ladies and gentlemen. Enjoy the game. 🙂
  9. 10:28 North Tower collapses. i spend much of that day desperately trying to reach my sister, who lived in Manhattan, by phone. Wasn’t successful until i eventually realized cell tower calls weren’t getting through. I reached her by email later that afternoon. She previously worked about two or three blocks away from the World Trade Center, but had been laid off about a month previous, but I knew every week she was down there visiting with friends and coworkers and networking so she could find her next job. I just didn’t know if she was down there that morning. Thankfully, she was not. That was the scariest six or seven hours ever to me.
  10. 10:03 Shanksville PA - United flight 93
  11. 9:59 South Tower collapses.
  12. I always do.
  13. 9:37 flight 77 hits Pentagon
  14. 9:03 South Tower hit.
  15. Like I do every year, I am listening to the 9/11 memorial reading of the names. First plane hit the tower 8:46. I recall it was the most beautiful fall day. Please implore your congressional representatives to keep the funding for those firemen & others who are still suffering from severe health issues from working in the rubble for many of those subsequent days.
  16. And again, I made the right decision by bailing after two or three innings.
  17. (Probably bailing after 2-3 innings tonight, also. ... packing, packing, packing) Enjoy the game, all. 🙂
  18. I’m so glad I opted out of watching last night’s game after the 3rd inning. When I heard about the 7th inning massacre the next morning, I had to laugh. how else could I react? I’ve watched the Yanks enough this season to see that they still haven’t quite learned to produce runs other than w/home runs.
  19. God help me. Moving to Delaware, super Phillies, Eagle area. I’m thinking I won’t wear my Yanks t-shirt, except to bed.
  20. Well that’s pretty damn awful.
  21. Just a quick hello to you guys tonight. 👋🏻 Enjoy the game. 🙂
  22. Judge just passed Yogi Berra on the Yankee home run list, and now is two home runs behind Joe DiMaggio. That’s as far up the list he’ll get, I think. 1 Babe Ruth RF 659 2 Mickey Mantle CF 536 3 Lou Gehrig 1B 493 4 Joe DiMaggio CF 361 5 Aaron Judge RF 359 6 Yogi Berra C 358
  23. I’m older than most of you here, and I’m fairly certain I won’t see it, and will hope for all the younger here that their grandchildren will maybe see it happen.
  24. If you see one of these signs, get your butt to Lowe’s and buy a few cans of black spray paint. You know what to do next.
  25. So, asking for a friend. If the president stops, let’s say, by his count, a dozen wars… BUT gets us (& the rest of the world) right smack in the middle of a world war…. which results in a nuclear winter - - - - - - is that President still in line for the Nobel Peace Prize? 🤔 Or is the fact that Norway has been incinerated hurt his odds?
