I hate when people use comas incorrectly.
Wrong use of comas: “Mitch McConnell is in a hospital.”
Correct use of comas: “Mitch McConnell is in a coma.”
It didn't take long for O'Neill Cruz and the Pittsburgh Pirates to round into mid-season form. This was the very first inning of their very first game. youtube.com/shorts/EPUP6Skq4…

This morning I called James and congratulated him on becoming the Senate nominee. Texas is primed to turn blue and we must remain united because this is bigger than any one person. This is about the future of all 30 million Texans and getting America back on track. With the primary behind us, Democrats must rally around our nominees and win. I’m committed to doing my part and will continue working to elect democrats up and down the ballot.
Pitchers and catchers report today. Just as Vin Scully promises from heaven. Spring is coming, it's time for Dodger baseball, and we shall be forever young... youtube.com/watch?v=aZxRpKiN…

Wow. Ian McKellen, Thomas More, William Shakespeare, and the "strangers' case," which is really the case for all humanity.
THANKS to the DDOT pothole crew who did in 30 minutes what would've taken DDOT almost two years to do. The uneven sidewalk let to MANY serious trips and falls - even hospitalizations. The crew was patching a pothole today and I asked them about the sidewalk. They took a pic.1/2
Fred & Joanne Rogers were lifelong Republicans. But in 2020, Joanne campaigned for Biden,with a zoom call from her home when Biden was campaigning in Latrobe. When asked why, and if Fred would approve, she told me, "locking children in cages is against everything Fred stood for.!
30 years ago tonight - 1/3/96 Eva Cassidy performing live at Blues Alley for a CD. She used $ her aunt gave her to pay for the pressing. At the CD release party, she was limping. Cancer had destroyed her hip. 9 months later, she died, youtube.com/watch?v=2rd8VktT…
Christmas time has officially arrived next door. Our wonderful neighbors at the Heurich house opened their annual Christmas Markt yesterday. Features local artisans. Runs thru Sunday. Come visit and have some glühwein to keep you warm against the winter's chill!
Next week is statistically THE MOST DANGEROUS WEEK OF THE YEAR for pedestrians and bicyclists and fender benders. Setting the clocks back means folks go home from work in the dark. Drivers be extra careful. Cyclists and pedestrians WEAR CLOTHING THAT LETS YOU BE SEEN! Be safe!
Pitt-Syracuse was the ugliest game ever. 25 penalties for 216 yards. That's more yardage than either team had in rushing or in passing. Add in all the injuries: it was painful to watch.
Had to spray paint over this dangerous sidewalk situation once again, after yet another person tripped over it. 1301 20th St NW, barelya block from a Metro stop. Painted and posted here March 2nd, and OUC311 promised to fix it. Will take 30 minutes to patch it, but still waiting.
The annual ingathering of exiles begins today for Steeler Nation. Training camp begins at St Vincent College in Latrobe. A football tradition unlike any other. If you've been there even once, you fall in love with it the rest of your life.
Three 8-hour-plus power outages in four days. 90 degree temps. No timely info from AlertDC or Pepco. How was my weekend? Thanks for asking.
