2020 Democratic contenders plead for cash after draining their accounts
The Democratic presidential contenders are racing to refill their campaign coffers -- following costly battles in the early nominating states and the looming Super Tuesday threat from New York tycoon Michael Bloomberg, who has plowed nearly half a billion dollars of his fortune into the fight to become the party's standard-bearer.
The campaign filings rolling into the Federal Election Commission on Thursday evening underscored the sharp money divide in the Democratic campaign as the race moves into an expensive coast-to-coast battle for delegates.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts spent more than twice what she raised in January and took out a $3 million line of credit to ward off running out of cash, her campaign reported late Thursday to federal regulators.
Pete Buttigieg on Thursday made his own urgent plea to supporters to help him raise $13 million -- or roughly $1 million a day -- before Super Tuesday's contests in 14 states after collecting just $6.16 million in January.
Aside from the billionaires in the Democratic primary, Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont entered the nominating season in the best financial position. He raised a staggering $25.1 million in January -- and, despite spending more than he took in, still had $16.8 million in cash reserves before the opening contests of 2020.
By comparison, former Vice President Joe Biden started February with $7.1 million remaining in his campaign accounts, followed by Buttigieg at $6.6 million.

Victoria’s Secret sold for $525M; all stores to remain open - for now...
Struggling company sold as women demand 'comfort'
Victoria’s Secret, which once defined sexy with its leggy supermodels in their lacy bras and oversized angel wings, has a new owner.
Now, the big question is whether the once sought after but now struggling brand can be reinvented for a new generation of women demanding more comfortable styles.
Every time I'd see a girl in something from VS I'd think to myself 'Boy, that outfit would look great on the back of my couch'...
The company’s owner, L Brands, said Thursday that the private-equity firm Sycamore Partners will buy 55% of Victoria’s Secret for about $525 million. The Columbus, Ohio, company will keep the remaining 45% stake. After the sale, L Brands will be left with its Bath & Body Works chain and Victoria’s Secret will become a private company.
Les Wexner, 82, who founded the parent company in 1963, will step down as chairman and CEO after the transaction is completed and become chairman emeritus. Wexner has been grappling with his own troubles, including questions over his ties to the late financier Jeffrey Epstein, who was indicted on sex-trafficking charges.

Ever see the movie 'Appaloosa'?
It's based on a Robert Parker novel. He's probably my favorite author (sadly, died a few years ago). His most famous characters, of course, are Spenser (the private investigator) and Jesse Stone (played by Tom Selleck in the TV movies).
He also wrote some kick-ass western books like these - This is a great way to introduce you to his writing if ya don't know him.

Ya know, I never really thought about buying groceries and other stuff for the house like paper towels and shit online.
If ya think about it though - especially if ya live in a big city or way the fuck out in the boonies - it makes a shitload of sense. The prices are lower (usually), ya don't have to go anywhere to get 'em, and they fuckin' deliver it all to yer house fer free.
WTF - why not, right?
