mine will always be the sperm whale who reacted to a Roman soldier throwing a bottle at him off the Byzantine coast by sinking every ship he could off that coast for the next 60 years and had the emperor declare him an enemy of the state and name him after the Titan who attacked mount olympus
About once a week I think fondly of my personal icon, the elephant who trampled a woman and then came back later to trample her some more at her funeral.

Michelle Miller is barely holding it together broadcasting from Canal Street on CBS Mornings this morning. Michelle is married to a former New Orleans mayor. Absolutely heartbreaking scenes from a city we all love so much. 🥺

Super important to remember that in the early hours after a horrible event, like what happened in New Orleans, scarcity of information creates a void that will be filled by bad actors with misinformation.

I would like to retract my earlier statement and I ask that Joe Burrow and Tee Higgins accept my apology. I was wrong and dumb.
The Bengals are not playing like they know how much I, a Saints fan, want them to win this game.

Fam, they let a Pop-Tarts mascot go to a hospital and meet newborns. Now we're going to have to do a longitudinal study on these babies.

I googled how to celebrate Boxing Day and. You guys. I think the reason Americans don’t celebrate Boxing Day is because shopping and sporting events is every day in the US.

If you work in Corporate and you have a holiday today, yet you feel the need to work to catch up or whatever you may have going on, delay the delivery of your emails. If you’re sending emails today you are ruining someone else’s Christmas Eve. Just stop. Don’t be an asshole.
