Mom Pundit would probably also disapprove of Falcons’ #1 pick Takkarist McKinley’s post-pick interview last night.
That said, I do see a nice marketing op for Steak n’Shake with a pass rush by #TAKhomaSAK
You stay classy my friend.
I happened to catch the interview. What wasn’t to like?
Mikes 7AM uninformed prediction for today …..
Gov. Deal will sign the certain-parts-of-campus carry bill at the NRA Convention. The audience will give him a standing ovation and cheer his name like Caesar.
Unknown to the majority of NRA members, they will be cheering for the leading and most effective defender of gun control in Georgia.
Yeah, they are even violating the NRA convention attendees’ 2nd Amendment rights and not even allowing card carrying gun toters to pack heat in the hall where the President is speaking.
So does that mean that there are a lot of firearms in hotel closets?
I don’t know if Scorsese is capable of a period piece that’s not set in NYC but that’s an interesting group of talent.
I haven’t heard about Grann’s new book. All the buzz has been about The Lost City of Z. Has anyone seen it yet? Care to share your impressions?
Check out the cast of Scorsese’s ‘The Irishman’ for Netflix coming in 2019.
Thanks, I will.
What do Arnold Swartzenegger and Noway have in common? “We’ll be back…” Take a gander…
If true, go for it! Maybe Coulter, Hannity and O’Reilly can contribute to this effort, too. I bl’eve this is referred to as “pushback!”

Vanity Fair… Trying new things? Good for you.
Saw your first link yesterday. Very possible, indeed. Sign me up!
Regarding the apparent delay in building The Wall, I’ll steal Ann’s last sentence this week:
“He’s the commander in chief! He said he’d build a wall. If he can’t do that, Trump is finished and the Republican Party is finished…”
As you all know, I love the guy, but truer words have never been spoken.
Well, whatever one thinks of Trump and his speech here today, at least he had the courtesy to come and go in between rush-hours. One of the most egregious political events here was in 2012, when Paul Ryan came to town for a fundraiser up near the Galleria and resulted in the Downtown Connector being closed northbound at the evening rush hour. Great timing…and he of course had not even been elected vice president but was basically a congressman who was Romney’s ill-fated running mate. But I guess just being a candidate for some offices is enough to warrant the so-called royal treatment—blue lights and loads of SUVs and your own open road.
