Whistles! Get hooked up!
Yesterday I tried to put everything I knew about whistles—where to get them, where to get instruction sheets, how to distro—into one place so you can build off it for your own community's whistle needs: dansinker.com/posts/2025-1...

This might be one of the few "Thanksgiving" traditions we can all support:
Feeding the hungry, providing for those in need!
”הֲלוֹא פָרֹס לָרָעֵב לַחְמֶךָ וַעֲנִיִּים מְרוּדִים תָּבִיא בָיִת. (ישעיהו נח:ז)
Share your bread with the hungry, And to take the sighing poor into your home.”
- Isaiah 58:7

- Isaiah 58:7

#Thanksgiving & football go hand in hand, and THE FRESHMAN (1925) shows the frenzy has been around for over a century. Harold Lloyd’s chaotic climactic game helped shape every underdog sports comedy that followed. Touchdown! 🏈
