Principal Amones resigns in the middle of a school year just two weeks after Valparaiso’s football coach “resigns” and we’re expected to believe the two events are not related? Coincidence? Methinks some overzealous parents muddied the water.
Note to pious members of the United States Congress: It’s very thoughtful of you to be thinking and praying about about the victims of gun violence. You’ve had plenty of practice. Now how about doing something about it. Or is it “too soon”?
When a non-white terrorist murders a few people with a vehicle, he’s an “animal” and Trump immediately starts trying to change law. When a white terrorist murders dozens of people with a gun, he’s mentally ill and it’s “too early” for Trump to consider changing law. Hypocrite!

The NFL’s Thursday Night game showed a lot of empty seats. More than half the stadium was empty. There were kneelers, I read in the news. I will not watch teams that kneel. Nov 12 is set for a National Boycott of the NFL being Veterans Day and Veterans Month in the NFL. The NFL is trying everything they can to get people to watch.
I just bought the highest priced performing car on the lot. I still have a lot of payments for many years. Problem is it cannot be driven because it has a problem before it can go on the road. I just stare at it in the garage and wait for me to see how it can perform. I call it “Out Of Luck.”
