FWIW, the website for the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia still identifies Lindsey Halligan as the U.S. Attorney and leader of that office.

He looks like he’s waiting on the ball in a slo-pitch softball game.

The most under appreciated and underrated great director of the last 40 years, if not all time.

It’s because of the Venezuelan narcoterrorists. And Biden.

Purchased for $30 in 1988 or so at a card show at MSG. If I had another $35 (which, as a dirt poor student I didn’t have), I could have had an uncut sheet of 71 supers too.

The last 2 to complete my 1970 supers set. I need around a dozen 1970 scratch offs and I’ll have everything issued that year (base, posters, booklets, supers and scratch offs). Happy Thanksgiving, Andy!

The 70 Dyer is my all time favorite card. I started collecting in 70 and remember opening packs my grandmother bought me from a luncheonette on Union Turnpike in Queens, NY; this card was on top of a wax pack and I still have it!

Amen.

If someone tells you it's sunny and 75, and someone else tells you there's a blizzard going on, your job is not to report both sides.

Your job is to look out the window & see what is actually going on.

I worked in TV news for 20 years. Too many producers have failed to look out the window.

What 77s do you need? I have a bunch available and am always looking for a trade.

Plus Jackie was traded to the Giants after the ‘56
season, then retired.

The Heritage DOGE Survey | The Heritage Foundation

.
You should DEFINITELY NOT go to this site & mess with this DOGE survey by the Heritage Foundation.

Definitely do NOT put fake information where they ask for your personal details.

That would fuck up all their shit, man.

These people are doing SERIOUS WORK.

#lawsky The federal hiring freeze that went into effect earlier this week has resulted in several of our law students losing summer internships and post-graduate jobs with federal agencies, including the Department of Justice, the Department of Labor, the IRS, the PBGC, and more.
