It’s early so let’s see if there’s anything easy to talk about in the news. Oh look! Senator Lott is going to resign at the end of the year. So long, Trent. I [...]

Lights Out, Broadway

For a ton of overweight, middle America that made the trip of a lifetime to NYC for the holidays to see the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade and real live Broadway Show, the holiday is ruined. Stagehands are on strike and talks broke down.
