Donna Summer's "Last Dance" (which is still a staple at many clubs and parties as the signal that it's time to go home)

I live in NJ now. In an area that is more pro-Philly teams than pro-NY teams (it's about equidistant from both). Everyone here would be incensed at those words.

I figured that about Monfils when Madrid posted video of him practicing a few days ago.

Those are treasonous words (I was born in Philly, raised in its suburbs).

Arthur Fils Is Up To the Task - The Second Serve Arthur Fils, at just age 21 and freshly returned from injury, appears to be up to the task of challenging Alcaraz and Sinner.

Enjoy! Then on to Rome?

So that's 3 women cabinet members gone now.

Gosh forbid any of what RFK Jr has done or Kash Patel force them to "step down."

Thanks for posting this.

Just in case anyone is wondering where Andy Roddick might stand, Brooklyn Decker just posted on IG about her interviewing Kamala Harris about the latter's book at a ticketed event. With a picture of her whole family with VP Harris. Including AR.

Just noting this.

I know for most movie chains the policy is 55 and above to get the senior discount price. Usually there's an information blurb to let you know the age range.

Many discounts are through AARP membership - they will let you know the age requirements.

Part of the problem was the Bill Nelson/Rick Scott race. Nelson should not have run again in 2018. It hampered things for messaging.

Bigger problem though was that the GOP were prepared for it to be Gillum. And boy did they play the racism card.

The people who don't realize that Mills is the stronger option here have their heads in the sand.

Forget her age for this election. Any oppo has been out there the last 2 election cycles when she ran for Governor. She has won state-wide races during MAGA time.

If the Invictus event will be on or around July 10 (Invictus Birmingham begins July 10, 2027), it would be hard for W+K to go into hiding. July 10-12 is the semifinals/finals of Wimbledon.

Just noting. 😊

So they had no idea how to run a good campaign for him (I was deeply involved in his campaign at the primary and general level so I know this).

In fairness, there is only about 2 months between primary + general in FL so it's an uphill road regardless.

But, still...

I dealt with this way too much when I was living in South Florida and very active in the Dem Party there.

They were so shocked when the Progressive candidate won the primary for Governor in 2018 (Andrew Gillum). They'd been betting on one of the 2 centrists. (1/2)

Not Everybody Thrives In A Team, But Everybody Learns When you want to see what some champions are made of, a team event can be one of the best seats in the house. Exhibit A with Belgium v USA in Ostend.

‘I’m extremely lucky to be here’: Jelena Dokic on childhood dreams and talking tennis Australia’s former world No 4 player and now respected pundit speaks about highs and lows in her life, and the importance of family on success

Sometimes you have so much in an interview that it won’t fit in one article. So, here is the first of a couple of pieces with Jelena Dokic, whose story remains one of the most incredible in sport, and who is an inspiration to so many people. www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/a...

I just can't with this weather in NJ. Yesterday it was in the 70s. Day before that in the 90s. Same with the two days preceding that one.

The weather service just issued a freeze warning for Monday night/Tuesday morning.

But, please, let's "drill, baby, drill."

Just saw the scores from Munich. Thank you very much, Flavio Cobolli!

A WTA 125 is going to be in Philadelphia the week before the US Open.

I should be excited except it's the same week as free qualifying and all the other US Open events that week.

I signed up for the mailing list though.

Wife of Former Microsoft CEO Gifts NPR One of Its Biggest Donations in History Connie Ballmer, philanthropist and wife of former Microsoft CEO, donated $80 million to National Public Radio

Someone please do the same now for PBS.

The "New York New Jersey" thing is so idiotic in general. Just because FIFA wants to be able to claim the World Cup is being held in NYC.

Eek! I'm so sorry it's lasting this long for you.
