old Soviet joke for our times:

Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to.

Guy says: “looking for an obituary.”

Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.”

Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”

Dear Commissioner Manfred:

I am a baseball fan, and I am not concerned about the lack of a salary cap.

In fact, I am more concerned that those advocating for a cap will damage the game.

Sincerely,

Renee

Ronald Reagan: “Our peaceful trading partners are not our enemies; they are our allies.

We should beware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends—weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.”

BREAKING: In his first on-camera response to the deadly collision that killed 67 Americans, Trump blames DEI and his predecessors.

Absolutely disgusting. This man is utterly unfit to be president.

Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic.

A New Technique

This Red Tail Hawk and two others were pouncing through these grasses, seemingly trying to catch a snake or other prey by stomping their talons into their target. I hadn't seen this behavior previously.

On our way

The other social media sites are turning me off with their associations with MAGA and censorship policies. I'll give it a try here.
