More important now than ever to remember that the most progressive place in the world can’t protect people who can’t afford to live in it, and can’t welcome people it refuses to make room for.
It is with great sadness that I share news of the passing of my father, Donald Slatt. Hold your loved ones tight, friends. www.eveningtribune.com/obituaries/p...

I need Paul Rudd on the Muppet Show
I need Nick Offerman and Kristen Bell and Sir Ian McKellen, and Alan Tudyk and Nathan Fillion on the Muppet Show.
I need Animal in a drum battle with Dave Grohl. I need Missy Piggy performing Say Something with A Great Big World.
Bring. It. Back.
production of The Muppet Show should not be dependent on petty vulgarities like “ratings” or “revenue.” it should be preserved as a vital function of american culture. it should have a taxpayer-funded budget rivaling the CIA

Crazy you can catch the ball. Have clear possession and some guy can just strip it out as you hit the ground and that counts as an interception. Bills always on the end of some absolutely insane calls.
The bills got completely robbed. Out of all the interceptions that ever happened, that interception happened the least.
The Bills got screwed on three calls in OT. That was a Bills catch, NOT an interception. And those pass interference calls were BS.
Apparently the County can't hit the standard FOIA deadline and requires 7 more days to hit the export button on a Google Form.
I am once again begging you to slash the NFL broadcast graphics budget.

Should we put the fire hydrant in the utility strip? Or maybe along one of the wider sections of sidewalk? Neah...
In north Arlington we put the benches in the utility strip between the sidewalk and the road so that they aren't in the way. On Columbia Pike however...
Graphic showing that the Columbia Pike Multimodal project, in 2014, promised 10' sidewalks along the north side of Columbia Pike from Orme Street to S Courthouse Road, but what was delivered in 2025 has choke points as narrow as about 4'.
*sigh* Does that look like a 10' wide sidewalk to anyone?
