My dumb idea of the day is to impose a tax on ammunition sales. Make it something like 20% of a cost per round. Also allow it like Michigan's bottle tax...a portion can be refundable when you return the spent casings.

At least beer ads are somewhat creative.

I keep hearing the line from League of Their Own..."Lay off the high ones. "I like the high ones. You can't hit the high ones"

From the folks who once upon a time championed personal responsibility Mr Big Mouth, It's a Little League game, nothing was at stake. You took a teachable moment for your son and probably embarrassed the hell out of him. Instead you showed him how to be a giant asshole. If anyone needed to challenge the call it was the coach, not some jerk in the stands. I hope you're banned from future games.

If the group is pushing for valid ID's when voting why aren't they requiring them for the petitions they are having signed. That would only make sense, right?

I can usually tell by the unkempt beards, tacky tee shirts and NRA bumper stickers on their F-150s with loud mufflers

I saw Styx perform about three years ago at the Ryman in Nashville for an "oldies" show. They can still bring it. Ricky Skaggs was on the same bill. Don't discount the energy of the "retirement" gang. One of the local favorites here is a "horn group", shag band, Good Shot Judy. We caught them last year at a local winery. It was probably the venue's largest draw, mostly over 60. They had folks up and dancing from the start..

And critical thinking, despite what some people think

I have a neighbor who recently returned to 3 days a week at the office, his wife is at 4 days. They're basically doing the same work they've been doing the past two years with the commute or the ability to schedule things like doctor's appointments and such around working at home. My wife is permanently working remote and what I'm seeing it can be more stressful at times. Most of the times her day is filled with meetings (her position involves a lot of strategy meetings) with no real down time. Most of the staff is in the building one day a week and she says she misses that a bit. There a lot of issues that can be straightened out wit just a quick chat in the coffee room, or on the way back to the cubical. Before COVID her day might consists of meetings anywhere from Wixom to Ann Arbor, Downtown Detroit, Lansing, etc. The drive would give her time to unwind and digest the conversations from the meetings. Of course the 12 hour she makes it a bit tough now except for the trips to Michigan every month or so now. Bottom line I don't think there is a perfect solution. (At least she didn't have to go to Mackinac Island this week)

Teachers are already over stressed as it is. Especially at the elementary level. Between just having to manage 20 plus individual personalities 6 plus hours a day. This includes counseling, having to deal with kids who often come from two separate households, angry or even worse disinterested parents. Often with no real breaks during the day. That's even before having to make any lesson plans or evaluate the progress of the students in the classroom. This country already has a teacher shortage. It's going to get much worse if you add the extra burden of requiring them to be armed. (And what happens if an armed teacher breaks and decides to go postal?)

Just looking at this list. See the Cubs,,they have 16 listed. Madrigal expected back today.. https://www.covers.com/sport/baseball/mlb/injuries

I just looked it up. No info whether they use peach tree dishes..

This could lose him a fairly large portion of the Trump base as well as a few stray cat lady votes...

Adult males beyond a certain age and weight should never wear graphic tee shirts of any kind. Period.

How did you pend your weekend?

A little perspective

I did see a note on the ABC store that they were closing early. I was a bit surprised they were open (Thanks Youngkin) The bicycle shop in the same shopping area was closed. That said, I did get a couple of questions about fireworks at Colonial Williamsburg about fireworks, I told them they needed to go to Busch Gardens
