The advantage to being in Illinois is I miss a bunch of the ads they get in battleground states. That leaves more time to see Kars for Kids ads.

Enjoy the earworm.

Same to you.

Anyone know what that venue is? Looks like a small commercial warehouse lot. Per the Detroit Free Press - Vance, who is former President Donald Trump's runningmate, is scheduled to appear at Cordes Inc., a family-owned industrical trucking company, in Byron Center near Grand Rapids. IIRC, Byron Cen...

He appears to be renting smaller and smaller venues. Probably in order to make it appear to be packed to the gills, 100,000 people attending, which is what he will say. He'll probably claim 35,000 at this one since it's smaller. Somebody on his staff is working hard to not commit a Romney. https://...

There is a one-lane covered bridge not too far from where I am. After one truck heavily damaged it, they rebuit it with a steel frame so now the damage is mainly to the vehicle with only superficial damage to the structure. No trucks or box trucks are allowed on that road minus local ones serving ho...

Yeah, Andy's creation is amazing, and I say that as a former florist. I wonder if there's any cake inside that thing?

Delightful. Glad to see that they are publicizing the names of the restaurants this POS owns, so people can choose not to do business with them. Few restaurants can withstand a 15%-20% drop in sales for a couple of months, so being "cancelled" by decent humans could be the end of his litt...

Weird. Just imagine if the photographer hadn't asked them to smile! Also, Melania is clearly in witne...

One of the hardest moments in my church music work is the burial of a child. Sadly, that is what I prepare for this week.

Thoughts and prayers for victims of gun violence but something happens to one of their folks, send money.

Happy birthday

Now I really feel out of it. I didn't feel particularly stupid for not knowing who Sorbo was, given I never watched Hercules or anything else he starred in. But damn, I had to look up Dwight Schultz, too. After seeing his photos I think I recognize him from Star Trek, but didn't recognize his name....

It's only August!

Great Lakes Brewing's Oktoberfest releases in the beginning of August. I am not ready for a fall brew in the summer.

Of course, their Christmas Ale releases in October.

He would mock Senator Duckworth if she talked about going down in a helicopter.

Not directly related to this case, but QAnon seems to be very excited that "a South Florida federal grand jury" has INDICTED!! Smartmatic or some of their executives over a bribery allegation in some foreign country (sorry didn't get the details). Of course this means that WITHIN DAYS!! t...

They used to be competent.

The McDonnel Douglas merger. MD and their cheap cost-cutting leadership ended up in control over the Boeing engineering centered leaders. Too also. They brought in GE JacK Welch acolytes who were all about cutting and stock buybacks.

If a defendant's or their lawyer's games risk tainting the jury, can a judge declare a mistrial so the prosecution can refile?

Some of you may recall that Jason and Maureen Peltier were pretend married for a while and they lived in her little trailer. As I recall, their pretend marriage lasted until she stopped buying him cigarettes. Wasn’t he the guy Maureen was going to employ to provide entertainment at kids’ birthday p...

When Beryl remnants were coming through here, I remember some article talking about how tropical storm rain is different than what we get normally and it is good for plants.

It is not, however, good for driving, if you are one who likes to see where you're driving.

Using the "I was young and stupid" excuse is my go to. I may have used it for something I thought last month.

Quite unpleasant.

Ohh... I've heard or that one. You, um, win.

Was there an American Psycho aspect to it? No; not really. I mean, no "Huey Lewis & The News" was playing. ;) It was at a court hearing, and the gallery was basically just me and one other person. Klayman saw me taking notes, approached, and asked who I reported for. I said, "No ...

This tornado from Saturday touched down 2 miles from our house: Amateur. The closest I have been was on the edge of the EF-0 part of the 1980 Kalamazoo Tornado. The map is from a survey Fujita (as in the Fujita scale) did after the tornado. The red section was F2, the yellow, F1, and the other area...
