My summer job during college was at the gas station I had started working at during high school. My time at Trumbull ARCO included the 1979 Oil Crisis. Every morning, I would go past a line of 100 or so cars. There was a definite 70s zeitgeist going on then. Many 8 tracks played in those cars.

You'd think they would, or at least committee staff could provide details. Conflating 47 years since the establishment of the Islamic Republic and since 1947 may be a slip of the tongue but also one that should be easily and quickly corrected unless one has no historical context.

It's so much easier to walk into those errors when you have no historical knowledge beyond the single talking point that's been handed to you.

I don't disagree but he seems to have rethought some of his priors in ways that some other "Never Trump" former Republicans have not.

The seemingly sincere metamorphosis of Bill Kristol is truly amazing to watch.

Okay. The people have spoken.

For every reskeet this gets, I will post a random picture from my camera roll with no explanation (other than alt text).

Wind assisted in a Little League park off of an 88 MPH fastball but it was off of a lefty. I'll take it.

I helped give my cousin the final push to adopt Walter, who had been regularly camping out at her house. Despite a hard life, he's still a playing and cuddling maniac who loves people.

Peanut (back) and Butter (front) are orangey tabby cat brothers. Here they are sitting on the table staring at something, probably treats.

I'm so sorry. Know that there was a large welcoming committee for Bashy to greet him OTRB.

I was up all night with 8 out of ten lower back pain. I'm hoping that they can put me into a medically induced coma until this is all over.

Even though he is now 14 lbs, Butter will always be my special little baby.

It was a wild night and day here in southern Rhode Island. Around 30" with a wind gust to 71 mph.

There's never a bad time to reread The Stand. Are you an original version or author's extended cut?
