In a church basement - Hi my name is Jim and I have a problem with coffee. It started many years ago when I was working night shift and…. Are those donuts and a big pot of coffee?!
Love supporting local races. RR100 gravel race is a great way to start 2026. Rough Roa 100 can have some dicey weather, but so close to Chicago that no overnight is needed.

I've known Catherine Lucey for 26 years, since I covered the 1999 mayor's race for the PDN and she covered it for Penn's student paper. She is, quite, simply, the best in the business, who also got under Trump's skin in his first term. Trump is the real pig here www.inquirer.com/politics/tru...

For over 5 years, Marjorie Taylor Greene was one of the people in Congress most disliked by Democrats.
No death threats.
It was only when she turned on Donald Trump that she got death threats.
Just like Senators only received threats of violence after they wavered on Trump's cabinet nominations.

Running helps create two skills that are increasingly rare:
1. When running by yourself, it helps create an ability to be alone inside of your head for a long time.
2. When running with others, you learn to fill time with conversation instead of defaulting to your phone.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
