I know it’s cool not to change but I always call it Casey’s Center now. Yeah they are a big corporation but I see them supporting schools. All I see Wells Fargo do is lay people off and have security breaches.

My oldest son insists that he wasn’t talking about Weezer but saying they are playing “9 to 5” all the time in tribute to Dolly Now youngest son has been playing “9 to 5” constantly I am not sure I believe oldest son but I thought I better give his side of the story.

I monitor the QAnon sites and though I think it’s probably too late to matter to anything, the last week seems to be dominated by “Trump is the Anti-Christ” content.

Not sure which is worse: banning books because they don't conform to your narrow sociopolitical worldview, or because the computer told you they don't. Well, who am I kidding, they're both terrible.

I've said this before, but I'll repeat it here: As an Army vet, my personal rule has always been: if you're a civilian advocating a war of choice, I'd better see you at the front of the military recruitment line. Otherwise don't waste my time with your patriotism cosplay schtick.
