Spent a few hours out at the river today. A bit early for the winter fish, but I have had luck in November in the past. Water was low, but that will be changing soon.

Is any of this statement surprising, though?
I'm sorry, I'm still having a hard time getting over that the owner of the NY Times is in the Epstein files thing and they haven't even acknowledged this in any reporting.

J.D. Vance welcomes a two-legged robot helping on the job site. But if that helper is a person named Jose, he calls it a threat. Same tasks, same productivity boost.
The inconsistency reveals this isn’t about economics.

Well, my daughter’s HS soccer season ended yesterday with a 5-4 loss in PKs. She was devastated, but played her heart out and scored their only goal in regulation and had a great PK. She really wanted to get to the final again this year, but it was not to be.

The defense team presses Lairmore on whether the sandwich really 'exploded.' They return to the photo of the sandwich and wrapper on the ground.
"That sandwich hasn't exploded at all, has it?" defense asks.
"It looks like a little bit is coming out towards the bottom," Lairmore replies.
