[Sheriff Keith Swank @SaveOurSheriff]

Fifty-four years ago today, my Dad, a WWII Army Air Corps veteran, died of a heart attack at 49 years of age.

He left behind a 30 year old widow with four boys: 11, 7, 4, 2.

My Mom had to sell the small farm so she could pay the bills.

She married a local guy because that’s what you did back then.

He turned out not to be a very kind man. To say our lives were dysfunctional would be an under statement.

We grew up in a two bedroom double wide trailer working on my step dad’s parents’ farm. They were nice people.

I joined the Army after I graduated so I would not be stuck in Artemas, Pennsylvania for the rest of my life.

When I hear people tell me of my privilege, I just smile at them and remember where I came from.

@hotstick12 @IslesUpdateNY People bitched about this last year and then Schaefer did Schaefer things.

@CadillacBillson @Veteran4Freedom Why wouldn’t he just drive off then? Weird behavior by both sides.

@NoContextHumans One of the few areas where Canada got it right.

@aisles23 @philzfactz Definitely would be in that ballpark based on latest reporting that he turned down 15MM from Seattle.

@IslesDen @kb30309 I don’t want to lose either of them but Horvat is our best forward by a small margin.

@TDA7724 @IslesFix Well deserved, looking forward to seeing you back out there in the blue and orange!

@fiveonesix4life @RobertsNYIsles @NYIslanders I hear Sebastian Aho is available.

@fiveonesix4life @NYIslanders Solid deal for a guy that earned it. You don’t know what puck moving defensemen are earning around the league.

[(Not) Lester Freamon 🦞 @Coolestersmooth]

@RTaub_ Hard to argue he didn’t earn every bit of that. Unless he drops off this is a good contract.

@litcapital @mehdirhasan I’m not even sure of the point he’s trying to make.

@2000STOCKMASTER Love the optimism but i don’t see a takeover unless it’s a monster deal that they can’t refuse. 2X volume the last couple days is something we haven’t seen in a while though, so worth watching.

Everyone should, at some time in their life, have to clean out the house of an elderly parent or relative. You will realize that most of your possessions are waste. The things you buy at Walmart or Amazon aren't even worth pennies on the dollar.

@WerlinTheMage @philzfactz That package would be nothing compared to what you’d get back in Werenski.

[TheHost @TheHost_]

I live next door to an Airbnb house. The people paid 40k above asking to beat out a family with kids..the house needed work. It got a Magnolia Makeover..

So I was just out string trimming weeds in my garden (look, it's a fast way to clear between rows!) And hear, "god, let's just go inside. You can't even enjoy the patio with that noise!"

Oh..is my maintenance of the property I own interfering with you using a single family home as a hotel?

Good.

C’est avec une immense tristesse que nous confirmons le décès de l’un de nos policiers dans l’exercice de ses fonctions. D’autres détails suivront.

This note was just left on my windshield. All of us @spittinchiclets are so lucky to have the job we do and there is no better feeling in the world than hearing we have helped certain people through some hard times. Best fans in the world
