The answer to filibuster rules is simple - make the old geezers actually stand on the floor and talk all they want until they keel over.

People forget how, despite every member of his administration telling him not to do it, Reagan INSISTED on laying wreaths on SS Nazis graves in Germany.

Konahana Sakuya is actually a pen name from two well known cartoonists - Denjiro and Tsugumi - their serialized story “The Lights” was issued in a full manga book. They drew me in about 75 different panels as a teacher whose students investigate other-world alien sightings.

Harding probably committed suicide after the Sinclair Teapot Dome scandal. Coolidge watered down the stock market, leading to Hoover’s incompetence after the crash. Ike was a great General. Nixon, who was plain evil. Reagan lowered taxes, then raised Social Security more. Both Bushes sold out USA.

Looks promising. Will the Washington Sun eventually offer Comics? If so, it might be appropriate to offer entirely NEW funny pages, instead of collections of strips credited to artists who passed away fifty years ago.

Mrs. Noonan really existed - she died in cancer working at what was called "Soap Suds Row" at Fort Lincoln in the 1870s -- Elizabeth Custer wrote about her in her biography. Huntley's news articles later appeared in the National Police Gazette. Later, he and Florence wrote up a seance about her.

MisterRon @misterron.bsky.social · 21/08/2026
Also important to the book is Huntley’s wife, Florence Chance Huntley, whose achievements can be found in almost any history of famous American women. (Well worth looking her up).

A genuine celebrity, he was among the first journalists to appear in advertisement endorsements. Not long before his death, Huntley, was offered to become the Chief of the Teton Sioux, a unique event for a non-Indian then or now.

He followed that event as an editor and humorist at the Brooklyn Eagle, where his hilarious “Mr. and Mrs. Spoopendyke” stories boosted circulation in newspapers all over America, England, and Australia, and a book of those stories stayed on the best-seller lists well into the early 20th century.

Huntley’s journalistic adventures included taking over ownership of the failing Bismarck Tribune newspaper in 1878-79 with eight dollars and change, bringing it back to life, then quitting to journey through the wilderness of Canada for a dangerous interview for the Chicago Tribune

Huntley’s passing was covered at least 75 times in every English newspaper in the world. I have combined about half Huntley’s own words or newspaper articles about him along with real and fictional characters’ background stories to make it a narrative engaging and sensible to modern readers.

MisterRon @misterron.bsky.social · 21/08/2026
In his short career in the 1870s until his death in 1885, he was among the most popular writers of his day, and beloved by readers for his “Mr. and Mrs. Spoopendyke” stories. In more modern times, the Spoopendykes might be considered historical progenitors of Ralph Kramden and Gracie Allen.

From a query: My narrative non-fiction book entitled “The Celebrated Mr. Huntley,” offers a detailed, thrilling and extremely funny read using well-researched narrative techniques. The life and journalistic work of Stanley Huntley, centers on an unjustly forgotten figure in modern times.

Interesting. I have a buried 600 page Victorian era book concerning Stanley Huntley and Florence Chance Huntley that no one has managed to get very far with it. Here’s an actual newspaper article Huntley wrote from 1878 that centers on events of the time —
