  1. Arnold Palmer. @4merper4mer You should tag him or quote. I'd hate to see you lose like Trump. 😆 🤣
  2. Is he a piece of Americana? By everyone else's standards, that is.
  3. Trump supporters are like the irrate cretins that come to village, school, etc... board meetings and get all crazy-eyed that the gubermint is keeping them down. /smh What a bunch of losers... Weak losers... It's over Donny. It's OVER! Nothing over, you just don't turn it off...
  4. "In The Daily Telegraph, music journalist Ivan Hewett wrote: "Brubeck didn't have the réclame of some jazz musicians who lead tragic lives. He didn't do drugs or drink. What he had was endless curiosity combined with stubbornness", adding: "His work list is astonishing, including oratorios, musicals and concertos, as well as hundreds of jazz compositions. This quiet man of jazz was truly a marvel." "The Economist wrote: "Above all they found it hard to believe that the most successful jazz in America was being played by a family man, a laid-back Californian, modest, gentle and open, who would happily have been a rancher all his days—except that he couldn't live without performing, because the rhythm of jazz, under all his extrapolation and exploration, was, he had discovered, the rhythm of his heart."
  5. Good answer. He is Superman! 😆 🤣 But do they have storm doors on Krypton?
  6. Marv Bateman. Just because... He was a PK, not a punter... Or was he a punter too?
  7. I just cut up a tomato 🍅 yesterday grown in Canada 🇨🇦 😃
  8. Being from Buffalo, I think he's pretty well known. Total patriot. Bleeds what America is all about! Freedom of speech... etc... He's a Marine. I say that because don't they say there are no ex-Marines? Next clues will start to give it away... He's more American than Liberace...
  9. Nope. Alive. Russet also went to Canisius. Close. They both went to Canisius. Russert interviewed him. He is older than Russert. I will give you 3 strikes, because 2 is un-American!
  10. No. Not Wolf Blitzer. Entertainment is his category.
  11. https://www.chicagotribune.com/travel/ct-trav-20-things-disney-animal-kingdom-0429-story.html "The concept of presenting live animals to theme park guests originated with — of all people — Walt Disney himself. Walt's love of animals was sparked when, at the age of 4, he moved with his family from Chicago to Marceline, Mo., and he began to take care of farm animals." "A half-century later, in the early '50s, Walt was busy designing attractions for his first theme park, Disneyland, in Anaheim, Calif. He wanted to make the Jungle Cruise authentic by populating it with real animals. His Imagineers warned him that the animals would be unpredictable and couldn't be guaranteed to be onstage and visible to guests on cue. Audio-Animatronic animals were used instead. It was Walt's nephew, Roy E. Disney, who later supported the idea of an entire animal-themed park that would bustle with actual wildlife. Walt's concept blossomed into the lavish theme park Animal Kingdom has become — a park based more on reality than the fantasy found in other Walt Disney World parks, a park completely different from any animal park in the world."
  12. Just asked my wife, what the worst 'ketchup foul' ever was, she said: "When Ronald Reagan declared ketchup a 'vegetable' in school lunches." Good one! Good one Babe! ...And The Survey says! Sorry, not laughing at the closing of the plant. My condolences. I really love Canadian ketchup flavored potato chips too!
  13. To err is human, to rub it in, divine. ~Chinese Fortune Cookie. Cripes, now I gotta think of someone. Okay... Thinking of someone. Male. Alive. "Every swing brings me closer to my next home run. 😜" ~TheBambino
