Center-left technocrat, lover of all things Chicago, hater of all things idiot orange gameshow host, eater of Italian Beefs (wet, cheese, both), master solutioner of digital supply chains, and drinker of beers. Oh, and Oxford Comma stalwart.
Like a poor marksman who keeps missing the target, his BBB doesn't actually even manage that.

Sucks I might out on a higher SALT deduction, but it's the Appalachian, plains, and deep south states who will suffer more.

RIP George Wendt... Vaguely had an inkling bad in the Superfans days I wanted to be a Chicagoan because of it.

Can't grow the walrus mustache, but fat, sassage-lovin', aviator sunglasses?

Here's to you, Norm/Bob/etc/George.

Stop me at 1.... maybe 1:30.

One of the silly things that amuses me is which stock photo CNBC chooses to use on their home page at market close.

Today, they chose this one

I see the idiot gameshow host and crew have moved on from "I don't care" to "I meant to do that".

Is that progress or further regression?

Amen, brother!

One my most treasured pics of all-time, just randomly ran into a roadie in the Metro lobby waiting to get a T-shirt and he asked if I’d like to get a pic with Rick’s 5 neck. So worried I’d break it, and even more in awe of Rick because that puppy is HEAVY!

Every time the stupid gameshow speaks on matters impacting the market, I just have this scene in my head. His senile, contradictory BS is just bad for ANY investor.

Yikes. Atlanta Fed's GDPNow model updated with the PCE data from this morning.

Number plummets back down to the -2.8% that set off alarm bells at the start of the month.

I'm not sure I'd jump into either at this point --

Also known as kluski - many different manners of preparation but they're more like dumplings (but not quite gnocchi).

The old Polish ladies who worked the church kitchen were masters at them and the chicken, which were staples at every wedding, anniversary party, event, etc.

Every single damn day with this stupid gameshow host is like this...

Except dumber.

I finally figured out why I like Ben Brown so much...

He's 6'6, not 6'10. And right-handed.

But doesn't he look at least a *bit* like Randy Johnson's kid brother?
