My favorite all-time Yankee player was Thurman Munson, who died on this day (August 2nd) in 1979. I remember where I was when I heard the news… and how devastated I felt. I loved his fierce personality. I just loved him, period.

Can we set up a “go fund me” account to send someone on a vacation??? We need a freaking break 😂

And, now I’m not sure if I’m confusing “Trump employee 3” with “Trump employee 4” 😵‍💫😂🤪

I heard reports that the lawyer that walked in with him is a known Trump-affiliated lawyer who has previously been turned away for another client, again, because he has no standing in FL. So, not a coincidence. I think the Trump team just needed/wanted more time to talk to this guy to make sure he doesn’t flip, even though we all know he’ll go to jail if he doesn’t.

Predictable.

Judge is back. Tonight he’s had a HR, and I think a couple singles. Though you can tell he’s running a little gingerly, his swing looks good.

Of course. 🤬

This is one of the worst decisions that a board of “education” could ever make. Just reading this sickens me.

I think it will be today. (But I’m waiting for one of my sisters…. We’re seeing Barbie today. 😂)

Too funny 😂

Crane was 45 stories up. Carrying 16 tons of concrete. insanity

Binged through seasons 1&2 ofJustified, and flying through season 3….. because of the recommendation here for this show, and especially season 6! (Didn’t want to just try to watch season 6… wanted the full feeling of the characters) Thanks for the heads up.. I’m very much enjoying this show 👍

Am I the only one hoping for a pigsnuggler meme about now? 😂

Yeah. I try to be “in charge” of the bill when I’m out with friends, because some of them are (imo) under-tippers, and I’m admittedly an over-tipper because I’ve had quite a number of people in my family who at some point in their lives were waitstaff or bartenders. If the friends ask what the amount is before tip, and they think I’ve added too much for the tip, I back down, and then I just throw in more (without them noticing). I know that sometimes, the less than stellar service might have as its cause nothing to do with them in particular, but a backup in the kitchen,,etc. Also… we’ve all had days where maybe we’re not at our best. The caveat here is, of course, encountering outright rudeness… um, yeah, not going to reward that with a big tip, but also, I’d let a manager or owner know what was encountered. Personally, it’s never happened to me, gratefully. Also, chaz, I agree on (when possible) the tip in cash.

I thought the exact same thing, but was too lazy to respond… so, Thanks! 😁

This is horrifying. There is no end to the cruelty perpetrated by the Nazi regime…. And we seem to be currently staring AGAIN into the dead eyes of this kind of murderous philosophy.

I keep meaning to send it to my brother… but I can’t part with it. 😂

Oy vey

May I just add that , as a Bronx native, I abhor Queens & Staten Island accents. 😂

Btw, my thanks to those here who have been able to find a way to not put themselves into harms way by reacting the way he’s hoping. Kudos to you all. I appreciate it. (Believe me when I say, I’m doing my best)

Sorry, folks. The posts are ridiculous. The number of them posted at a time are also ridiculous. But, currently, they aren’t necessarily against the rules, … Now, having said that, it’s my (maybe foolish) hope that dpg would actually like to remain a member here, and might entertain the notion that maybe posting one or two might be enough at a time, and that 3,4,5 etc. in each thread might be excessive, and might also push way too many of my buttons. I guess we’ll see.

I think I’ll listen to my Tony DeBennedetto’s music today. buona lunga vita, riposa in pace. ❤️
