After this last election, it's a Festivus miracle I'm even standing here today. Between the political ads that could put Ambien to shame and the constant barrage of polls that swing wilder than a cat on a caffeine high, I'm surprised I haven't spontaneously combusted from sheer frustration! And don't even get me started on the debates. It's less about policy and more about who can sling the most mud without getting their suit dirty. It's enough to make a guy want to move to a desert island with nothing but a volleyball for company.

For my baby and me

69!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well its almost Christmas

From Mike Piazza in his 2013 memoir:

"Rickey was the most generous guy I ever played with, and whenever the discussion came around to what we should give one of the fringe people " whether it was a minor leaguer who came up for a few days or the parking lot attendant " Rickey would shout out "Full share!" We'd argue for a while and he'd say, "---- that! You can change somebody's life!"

Rest in peace, Rickey Henderson. Thank you for everything you gave us.

Goddamn this one hurts.

That's the only reason I could never bring myself to vote Republican.

"Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them."

#49!!!!!!!!

I know 49ers fans are probably feeling like poop right now, so here's a stat to cheer them up:
The Dallas Cowboys have won a Super Bowl more recently (1995) than the 49ers (1994).

Musk doesn't have an engineering degree. He operates by throwing money around and making demands. When that doesn't work he sulks and then take his $$$ and go home. He'll last about 6 months and then go back to Texas and resume collecting government subsidies.

Rickey had a thing about referring to Rickey about Rickey in the third person.

"Rickey don't like it when Rickey can't find Rickey's limo."

"Kevin, this is Rickey, calling on behalf of Rickey. Rickey wants to play baseball."

"Rickey got a big ranch. Rickey got a big bull. Rickey got horses. Rickey got chickens and everything. And Rickey got a 20-gallon hat."

One of my favorite Rickey Henderson stories. In the 80s, the A's accounting dept. noticed a million discrepancy on the books. Turned out Rickey hadn't cashed his million dollar bonus. He told the GM he had framed the check and hung it on the wall of his house, instead.

Patiently awaiting criminal charges against Gaetz and the House Ethics Committee releasing files on everyone else in congress who is involved with sexual misconduct and drug abuse.

He won't be Speaker. He couldn't handle it.

Nope. Speakers are questioned.

I've got nothing against transgenders. I grew up in the 70's. They were everywhere. Geraldine, Bowie, Burle... I find them amusing, like clowns.

Grabbing them by the -------- ain't rape.

The only poster that has a "sick mind" is the one that percieves of child abuse when none has been proven.

"In my single days, I often sent funds to women I dated"even some I never dated but who asked. I dated several of these women for years. I NEVER had sexual contact with someone under 18. Any claim that I have would be destroyed in court"which is why no such claim was ever made in court," Gaetz wrote. "It's embarrassing, though not criminal, that I probably partied, womanized, drank and smoked more than I should have earlier in life. I live a different life now."

Stop the presses! A young straight man has a thing for young straight women. That demands a full taxpayer funded investigation by congress. Meanwhile, Giselle Maxwell sits in prison and the reason she's there hasn't been released. Matt Gaetz refused to play the D.C. game. Now, he's lost his job and is being penalized. The powers that be remain undefeated.

That's all Trump is in this for. He's still pissed NBC gave Gwen Stefani more $$$ than him. Fred and Roy Cohn really did a number on that guy.

Where's your messiah now?

Most servers are drug addicts that use tip money to fund their filthy habit. The only person more upset about this is the waitresses drug dealer.

Good enough for FDR, good enough for RFK.

Hey, FDR is always rated in the top two of the greatest presidents. Maybe Trump is hoping a resurgence of polio will make America great again!

To me, he had seemed like a more benign, if crazily narcissistic, Macy's Thanksgiving Day balloon of a figure in the New York real estate days. Why was the former pro-choice Democrat going down such a dark and authoritarian path as a candidate?
"I guess," Trump mused, "because of the fact that I immediately went to No. 1, and I said, Why don't I keep the same thing going?'"
Trump can play it round or square, pro-choice or anti-abortion, pro-TikTok or anti-TikTok, pro-crypto or anti-crypto. He has no philosophy, except: What's in it for him? The only thread of continuity in his life is self-interest. He supercharged and retrofitted the Republican Party for his own benefit.

I get all my news from Stormfront.

One thing I want DOGE to fix, getting Ted Nugent back on the radio!

Gotta create a problem to solve a problem.

That's the ethos of DC to the letter.
