We haven't felt it yet, but I think that as pennies become scarce the tendency to round up to the nickel or dime will become an affordability issue. A plan to recirculate the ones we have, an incentive to search couch cushions, could be helpful.

If you took the theme of the movie "The Bad Lieutenant" and developed a "Law & Order" type tv show around that concept, you'd have "The Trump Administration".

I think that Bernie Sanders asked the right question- who would replace him? I don't know, but I don't think that Chuck Shumer is the leader Democrats need right now.

Salute to FDNY Engine 55, aka Cinquantacinque (55, their house is in the heart of Little Italy) They were among the first of the first-responders on 9/11. Richard, respect and admiration for y'all and those you've lost.

A grateful US Army bestowed a singular honor on Gene Autry- he's the only person ever allowed to wear cowboy boots in uniform. Cowboys are the closest thing we have to the Musketeers or Knights of the Round Table. Instead of the 10 Commandments, post the Cowboy Code.

Can I ask a vet? I never served. I'm watching the Army-Navy game and noticed the flag on Army's uniform. Isn't the flag supposed to be displayed with the blue field facing forward (as it appears when advancing)? I ask because I can't believe that Army wouldn't know that; is it right?

When you watch old NFL highlights you really notice how modest the players were about their on-field accomplishments.
The highlights start at 1:15
The play-by-play on the Bears vs Redskins (10:15) is, well, you decide.
I'm going with astonishing.
