Not sure if I ever mentioned this but did a Jimmy Somerville in the mid to late 90s when he went solo and I accompanied him to the Miss Brighton Drag Queen revue on the English seaside. He drank vodka and coke! For a boy from Flint it was quite the education.

I dream of a future for my son who, after he has subscribed to 15 news websites, can purchase single articles from the other 5000 websites out there since he may only need one article from the Fresno Bee in his entire lifetime and is willing to pay for it, but not subscribe. We can make it happen.

Drake Maye had a decent half by a big run and td pass. It was marred by 2 fumbles, a bad luck int predicated by his terrible throw, and an obvious intentional grounding. Ok, Drake Maye did not have a good half.

Psst, that was last year. That was when they won their 10th AFC title in the century. That's 40% of the AFC titles. Seems pretty good.

General consensus here in Livingston, MT where Daily Wire is shooting a pro ICE movie about Minneapolis. Shots are gonna have to be real tight to make Livingston look like MSP. Currently shooting tear gas scene in alley behind boutique Western shop.

There is no "Democratic Party division." There is Ryan Grim, Matt Stoller, and a bunch of apologist dead-enders trying to undermine Jackson for the crime of having decided that Platner was not fit to be the nominee. The Democratic Party is united behind Troy Jackson.

You're right. Pats could not get a bag of day old donuts for him. Starting with the playoffs, Maye has had a run that DeShaun Watson would be proud of.

Today, I had the opportunity to talk with Terry Bradshaw. I told him about crying as a 6-yr-old as a Raiders fan over the Immaculate Reception. Bradshaw: Oh man I'm sorry. Me: You're not really sorry are you? Bradshaw [cackling] Nah, not sorry at all that's just what polite people say.

The best The Rest is History podcasts to nap to are the British ones especially the ones on The 70s and The Suez Crisis. Delightful cabinet squabbles and slams from minister's diaries about hinterlands and eyebrows. Top notch stuff.

Someone chimed in suggesting I was awful for celebrating my trip while others can't pay for insulin. Don't worry buddy, I'm spending my 6am-noon portion of my vacation writing about a family devastated by their father's death on 9/11. The joy is finite.
