I did not see Challenger live, I was too young (born 1982) but I know my sister did (born 1977). I did see the second plane hit on 9/11. I was getting ready to go to school (sophomore in college) and I pretty much always had the TV on in the mornings. The today show had it live.
In my limited research, it seems that the Sam Rosenbaum name was used in the Looney Tunes show in 2013. Great way to prove that Wikipedia is often incomplete! (I also found this info on Wikipedia, just farther down the article).
“Yo Semite” is how I discovered that Yosemite Sam is canonically Jewish (his real name is Samuel Rosenbaum!)
I worked at a movie theater for 5 years. We had a giant screen with a 900 seat theater (RIP Continental theater 5 😭). When it was really bad, we used a leaf blower to clear under the seats and blow the trash to the front. I hated cleaning, but I used to love using the blower 😆
This is another one that was on my Dad’s roadtrip mixtape. I didn’t really understand the song when I was young (but I liked it) but I get it more now.
And it’s 1-2-3 What are we fighting for?
Hmmmm, I wonder if they would consider it war if someone was bombing Washington? I think they might!
Date him, sure. But you marry his brother in Genesee
Uhhh does anyone remember what happened AFTER the roaring 20s? Just checking….
It’s because they are the ones cheating. They just didn’t cheat hard enough in 2020 so they had to cheat extra hard in 2024. Every accusation is a confession.
One of the most recognizable guys in Denver….. but no one really knows him. I concur- it’s a no.
But wait, didn’t a bunch of R Congress critters just freak out because Jack Smith (legally) subpoenaed call data (not the content of the calls) of people on Jan 6? Wonder what they would have to say about this one…
I only know for sure that it’s not Shrek
His letter is the ramblings of a potty training toddler having a tantrum. When he doesn’t get his reward for pooping in the potty (ending eight wars- super questionable anyway) he decided to just take a shit on the living room floor.
The Buc-ees that opened up in Colorado (our first) has a super charger. My family likes to stop there on the way to our property in southern Wyoming. If we’ve got multiple cars (gas and EV) then everyone gets a fill up and we also get the food and bathroom.
Last day of the original Elitch Gardens. As they say “Not to see Elitch’s, is to not see Denver” youtu.be/JoBd6d58qfE?...
And at the same time…. We have a man going on trial right now for throwing a sandwich. Throw a sandwich: go to jail! Drag a woman through the streets by her hair: just another day in ICE.
That’s the point, really, MONEY IS FAKE. We don’t have enough for everyone because we have decided as a society that we don’t have enough. There is no reason for anyone in the U.S. to be hungry.

People that I call Aunt: my father’s sister; my mother’s sister; my father’s best friend from college’s wife; my best friend from childhood’s mom; anyone older than me in the Filipino community.
People that call me Aunt: my actual nieces and nephews; my brother-in-law’s, first cousin’s children; my best friend’s from high school’s children (they actually call me Tia Becca).
What about a good viola? Shoutout to the amazing Mackenzie of the Flobots
Technically the Flobots have a viola 😏
This would have been truly hilarious at that funeral last week…
I thought they didn’t like cancel culture?
Every accusation is a confession. 🤮
You forgot about the teens skipping school attend baseball games and sing in parades. Lawless!
Denver was built in the years after the Civil War and has a section of streets named after Union heroes: Lincoln, Sherman, Grant, Logan… I also went to Ulysses S. Grant Middle School. We’re not perfect though- until a few years ago we had the South High Rebels (with a confederate soldier mascot)
WTF mate?
When I was a kid, my dad had a mix tape that we always played on road trips. It started with American Pie and had some Dylan and a liberal sprinkle of satire and protest songs. One of my favorites was this one by Tom Lehrer. He was a genius. May his memory be a blessing. youtu.be/JPrAuF2f_oI
