Okay - all the fireworks have been fired, all the barbecues barbied and all the hoopla hooped, what's next? Personally, I wasn't that invested in the whole thing in the first place, not only because the word was so unpronouncable - Semiquincentennial or a Sestercentennial - whatever. Bicentennial was so much easier to deal with just a short fifty years ago, and, as I remember, I didn't get all jacked up about that one, either. Maybe I'm just not the sentimental old fool people think I am - although I do cry any time a soldier comes home from war in a movie...

The only reason I mention that he still lives out on the island is that, aside from going in to Manhattan or Brooklyn for work - he's an A-plus graphic artist/illustrator - I don't think he's ever travelled farther than an ocassional jaunt to Foxwoods or AC. That would be the extent of his lifelong travels...

Overall maintainence on the properties always suffers during these freezes as the ladlord's cut back on basic systems and programs to protect their already slim margins.

Victor Willis, the original lead singer and co-founder of the disco group Village People who famously co-wrote and sang "Y.M.C.A.", died on June 30, 2026, at the age of 74. His death was announced by his bandmates and his wife, Karen Huff Willis, following a short but aggressive illness.
Willis was the band's frontman and donned the iconic policeman and naval officer outfits during performances. Alongside "Y.M.C.A.", he co-wrote many of their greatest disco-era hits, including "Macho Man" and "In the Navy". Yeah - they were silly, but they were also fun to see and hear during otherwise difficult times.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson refused Trump's offer to help after the city's bloody holiday weekend. TDS is more difficult to quit than nicotine or heroin.
Over the 3-day Juneteenth celebration, 40 Chicagoans were shot and 6 people killed in gang wars on the Southside. To honor Pride Month the Chicago White Sox wore rainbow Kevlar.

The Weather Channel reports Europeans are sweltering this week in record-high week-long 100-degree heat. This comes after the EU outlawed air conditioners to placate climate change warriors.
It's so hot in Paris that American tourists are asking the French for directions just so they can get the typical cold shoulder from the frogs.
