My OCD makes me worried that if I'm not careful I'll do something that sparks a chain of events that ends up with my wife and children being tortured to death in front of me while I am forced to watch.
I could see how the gold leaf thing could be tough though.
I'm sorry we never got a chance to meet, but getting this note from Dolly really had a an impact on me. She definitely didn't have to take the time to do it. Even for a kid who mostly listened to rap music, she was an icon. A superstar in every sense. Rest easy Dolly. And thank you for the kind words.
Sam Antonacci and Drew Romo visited the Chinatown Branch of the Chicago Public Library yesterday for a morning of literacy-focused programming and family-friendly activities! In addition to book readings and games, youth attendees also received White Sox and Xfinity co-branded bookmarks that the Chicago Public Library will continue to distribute across all branches this summer. 📚
Texted my friend who works in a high level position in a MLB front office to ask him if he had any insight into why Trevor Bauer isn’t getting any traction in the MLB again. This is his verbatim response, copied and pasted with permission:
“No interest in him for yrs. PR nightmare, players don’t want him around, control freak and a diva, wants special treatment. League minimum talk on X is a desperation play for clicks, eyeballs. Every scouting dept monitors NPB, MEX. Velo+spin down, control diminishing. Workout programs took backseat to YouTube career, shows on field. Doesn’t have the stuff to make a 40man, wouldn’t make our LowA roster. Would be shocked if he ever gets even a minor league deal again. Def won’t with us, friends in other offices say same.”
Nature is healing. 🥰🥰🥰
