This is from Irvington. My son in Ohio texted at 9:42 so I went outside. It was faintly noticeable then, really picked up 10 minutes later, but was gone by 10:15 at the latest.

Watching today's speech and taking the opportunity to yell at...Democrats. Yeah, we need new leaders in Congress, but there is no One Neat Trick to stop a fascist takeover supported by all three branches. A handful of R reps and senators of conscience could end most of this today.

One of my best moments ever as a sports fan and one I thought I would never see, IU taking the field in a packed stadium in late November for a game with playoff implications. Of course, I ruined it by telling my kids, "this is too perfect, we're going to lose."

Indiana did this in 2000-01, at least for some games. For whatever reason the TV networks moved the camera location and they flipped the logo the next year. TV angle in Knight era was always from behind the benches.
