@stoolpresidente little known spot, I dont even see it anywhere in the comments. La Bellezza Pizza shop, 49th street. Order the chicken parm sandwich WITH vodka sauce. Life changing
Jay Wright never broke the huddle with the word: “Win.”
He broke it with one word.
A word that had nothing to do with the scoreboard…and everything to do with how you show up.
It became Villanova's mantra and identity.👇
BREAKING - Right wing pop star Lana Del Rey commented on last night’s Grammy Awards: “I didn’t go because I don’t want to be associated with those smug celebrities. They lecture you while sipping champagne in their gold-plated mansions. I hate them. Billie Eilish stinks and Bad Bunny is a cock gobbler”
Well this sucks...
Senator Katie Britt just disclosed a purchase of JP Morgan $JPM while sitting on the Senate Banking committee
$JPM is up now up 27% since her purchase
But the worst part is you couldn't have even followed this.
Because she violated the STOCK Act by disclosing this trade hundreds days late
Her fine? $200
Less than the price of a speeding ticket in most states.
BREAKING: President Trump announces a new childhood vaccination schedule.
Trump says American children are no longer required to receive "72 jabs," reducing recommendations to just 11 vaccines.

Gonna try to take tmrw off this site, this week has been so dark, but the one story I always look back on every 9/11 is the Man in the red bandana.
Welles Crowther, going up and down the World Trade Center stairs helping people escape. Welles sacrificed everything to help others.
I try to think what is one even slightly helpful thing I can do, or a small good I can do, that would be even just a decimal as good as what Welles did. How can we all do something that Welles would've done?
Rick Rescorla was the director of security for Morgan Stanley. His preparation and relentless drilling of evacuation techniques (due to his strong suspicion that the WTC was a target for terrorism since 1988) resulted in nearly all of MS’ employees being successfully evacuated.
When AA11 struck WTC1, the port authority made announcements urging people to stay at their desks. Rick ignored the announcement, got on his bullhorn and began the process of evacuating MS’ 2700 employees. In a call to his best friend Dan Hill, he relayed,
“The dumb sons of bitches told me not to evacuate. They said it's just Building One. I told them I'm getting my people the fuck out of here."
During his tour of duty in Vietnam, Rescorla had boosted morale among his men by singing Cornish songs from his youth. He did the same in the stairwells of the world trade center, directing people down stairwells and away from elevators while singing:
“Men of Cornwall stand ye steady;
It cannot be ever said ye
for the battle were not ready;
Stand and never yield!”
Between songs, after successfully evacuating almost all of the 2700 employees, he called his wife Susan and told her,
“Stop crying. I have to get these people out safely. If something should happen to me, I want you to know I've never been happier. You made my life.”
Susan replied, "You made my life, too”.
Despite successfully evacuating everyone, Rescorla then went back into the building to continue getting everyone out. When the message came through on his walkie-talkie that he, too, had to evacuate he said, simply, “As soon as I make sure everyone else is out.”
Rick was last seen heading up the stairs of the South Tower on the 10th floor, shortly before the collapse. Just 13 of Morgan Stanley’s 2700 employees at WTC perished on 9/11 - Including Rick and his deputies Wesley Mercer, Jorge Velazquez and Godwin Forde who all went back into the building to help anyone who needed it.
We don’t all need to be heroes, defying death with Cornish battle songs and saving thousands of innocent people. But if we could all internalize just a small portion of the sense of duty, preparedness and selflessness that Rick possessed, the world would be a much better place. I share this story on each anniversary with the hopes it gets us just a little bit closer to that.
Logging off for the day. Emotions running hot, feeling upset, disappointed in the state of things. I love my country & hate seeing things become so polarizing. Every scroll is just making more upset & I fear we’re past the point of no return. I pray we can find peace & cohesion.
