I am asking the Atlanta Braves to sign 67-year-old Gary Cooper of #Savannah to a 1 day contract to qualify for a MLB pension.

Mr. Cooper spent 42 days with the #Braves in 1980 and on his 43rd day, the game was canceled for rain. 43 days is required for a MLB pension.

Just in case you were confused about why the price of everything keeps going up and mistakenly concluded it was inflation

Someone just said don’t say DEI “with the hard I.” I’m done now. Our ability to flip anything is EVERYTHING.

If your county government claims a shiny new jail is needed to help people 'get services,' you're welcome to refer them to the mythbusting section of our 'Whole Pie' report. Jails have never offered anything remotely close to real healthcare. It's doubtful they would start now.

Remembering Lance Reddick, Cedric Daniels on #TheWire , who passed away one year ago today. Taken from us far too soon.
