Talked to one of my kids at Ole Miss and the stories are coming out. And, as you'd expect, people are being totally normal about everything and are definitely not the reason for police at a certain sorority house and a certain apartment complex. Nor are they the reason a certain final is now online.

People, including Nick Saban, say Jordan-Hare Stadium is haunted
So, of course, I called experts, spent hours in the Auburn library researching past land use, bought ghost-hunting gear, used the ghost-hunting gear and tried to find out the truth

Red Cross every time I give blood: "have you thought of doing a Power Red donation?"
Me: "yeah, but I don't have time."
Today I have time, so weeks ago, I sign up for a Power Red donation.
25 minutes after my appointment time, I'm still waiting for them to finish setting up the machine. Sigh...

Researched this one recently: Through their first 21 games, the #CBJ were one of only three teams to play five back-to-backs in the opening quarter of the season. The others: Capitals, Mammoth. The other 29 played fewer.
The Jackets are the only team that's flown after each back-to-back opener.

it is almost as if accommodating and conceding to far right ideas legitimizes them and signals to voters that the far right is a legitimate choice for governance
