It's all the Democrats' fault, of course.

As of Saturday morning, Hurricane HILARY is a category 3 hurricane off

As much as some of you liberals around here are glued to your phones reading about the latest indictment of Trump while masturbating furiously, I have been enthralled by the latest round of college football realignment.

It happened again. I'm sitting here enjoying a nice little Saturday, perusing Hippo's Morning Thread and I AGAIN think, "I wonder what our wonderful writers have cooked up for tonight's Open Thread."

Wumbo Wednesday: We Has Camp Notes!

Ah yes, summer camp, the wonderful fun of doing… whatever arts and crafts shit, I don't know what goes on at most sleepaway camps. The only sleepaway camp I went to was music camp, and though we had a good time it's not nearly as fun as the "one time

I love the 4th of July. I specially have loved spending the 4th outside the USA. I remember vividly spending one 4th in Rome while traveling and hearing about a fireworks display being put on by an ex-pat club in the city. We went (I was in a group with Americans
