If a reality check and a smack in the head
are the same thing, why would I need both?
We both sipped (I actually guzzled but sipped sounds better) our beers and thought about it for a minute or two and then talked about the Yankees/Red Sox game that was on the TV in front of us as if that was the most important event ever in the history of the world. Life goes on, doesn't it? Maybe we all need a smack in the forehead once in a while. Juss' sayin'...

This is what he was doing - he texted me this picture. This is Miss Philadelphia, who ended up being Miss America in 1924.
His only comment? Philly's been fucked up for a hundred years - if not a lot more. He's a pretty deep guy with a twisted perspective. Maybe that's why I like him as much as I do...

The Big Apple stinks, all right, Mayor Eric Adams said Friday when asked about New Yorkers’ record-breaking odor complaints, but it’s not the stench of dirty streets that bothers him — it’s all the pungent weed smoke everywhere.
“The No. 1 thing I smell right now is pot. It’s like everybody’s smoking a joint now,” Adams said with a chuckle. “You know, everybody has a joint.”
Adams’ comments came in response to questions from The Post about disgusted residents and workers who said Thursday that the city smelled worse than ever this summer. Various Manhattanites described the foul aromas as “rancid,” “gnarly and cadaverous” and “like a used diaper.”
“I’m not smelling — maybe I have a New York nose,” Adams said during a news conference outside City Hall. “I’m not smelling.”Calls to 311 show that outdoor odor complaints are at an all-time high after rising 54 percent — to 5,746 through June 30 — compared to the same period in 2021, according to a Post analysis of official data. Adams said “the majority” of those complaints involved idling vehicles and vowed to “make sure we enforce the idling law.”
And despite a recent survey by Time Out magazine that ranked New York the second-dirtiest city in the world, Adams claimed the piles of trash and rats running wild weren’t that bad — and faulted merchants for not tidying up the sidewalks. “I think the city is getting, it’s getting cleaner,” he said.
“But store owners have to do their job, too. Everyone has to sweep up in front of your spot. You got to bag your garbage. Everyone has to chip in to do so.”
President Biden is facing a disaster with young voters, increasing fears among Democrats that they are in danger of losing a generation if he doesn’t improve his standing with Generation Z.
Biden’s approval rating has declined across the board among Democrats, but the figures with people under 30 years old is cratering. A New York Times-Siena College poll this week found 94 percent of Democratic primary voters ages 18 to 29 saying the party should nominate someone other than Biden in 2024.
Biden, 79, has never been the candidate for younger Democrats, though they did rally to help him win the White House in 2020 as the president endorsed key progressive policy initiatives to address climate change and other issues. Now the polls suggest they could abandon him altogether amid frustration with a lack of progress in Washington on everything from climate change to abortion rights.

things were somehow better.

New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy on Friday took the helm of the National Governors Association, launching his term with a message of bipartisanship and commitment to address youth mental health issues.
Murphy, a self-styled diplomatic progressive, has been steadily raising his national profile in recent months, fueling rumors that he could be a potential 2024 candidate should President Joe Biden decide not to seek a second term.

Think about it. There are people out there who make their living as 'animal traffickers'.
That's fuckin' weird, ain't it?

of the big city uber-lib newsrags. What they're trying to claim is that Dr. Oz, who used to live in Jersey, is not a true resident of Pennsylvania, which he is, so this is bullshit and they know it, but they'll propagate it none the less...
These same dooshbags didn't have any problem when Hillary went to New York to run for Senator because they knew a seat was gonna be open. She also knew the people of New York would be stupid enough to elect her, and - tada - they did.
So I guess this prompts a legit question. Are the newspapers fucked up for making shit up to suit their agendas, or are the people fucked up for buying in to that bullshit? Tough call...
