Straka T21, Glover missed the cut. This week, however, at the #GenesisOpen it's a mortal lock...I am only saying two words....Taylor. Pendrith. Mic drop.
OK they both ended up tied for 33rd. This week, for the #WMPhoenixOpen, cash in the 401K, favorite - Sepp Straka, dark horse - Lucas Glover. (littlebirdbill accepts no liability or responsibility for loss of anything of value of yours)

Remember when we had no African American quarterbacks in the NFL? Not that long ago. And then somebody said "Hey, there's a ton of really good African American quarterbacks." and teams started choosing them?

The fossil was found at a cliff in Denmark. Fossilized vomit is called regurgitalite, and it's a type of trace fossil, which tells scientists about an organism's daily life.

Amazing that people are just now coming to the conclusion that MAGA is just about racism. Where ya been? Its always been the whole point. TFG has sold that racism is a virtue and not something shameful from day 1. That was his hook. He saw a big enough racist market to get him elected twice.

I have a big ask. My 9yo son is autistic and he’s been raising a betta fish he named Kevin. Yesterday He asked if he could “share a photo of Kevin with the whole world“. I don’t know if this will work, but a dad’s gotta try. Like and share if that’s your thing. Kevin says hi! 🐟👋
