Anyway to look at it, "60 Minutes" and CBS have become the "National Enquirer" of TV, Not because it had Stormy Davis on it, but because CBS elevated Anderson Cooper to prime time. Didn't watch.. but that's not anything new, but scanning the online interview "high-or-low points" showed this will be CBS executive team's "pea" in the bed they made for themselves.

From the "facts don't lie" department - Online story: "Facts don't lie. That's as true now as it was at Donald Trump's January 2017 inauguration. * The estimated turnout at the March For Our Lives demonstration in Washington, D.C. falls at around 800,000. That data point comes from official connected to the demonstration's organizers, speaking to NBC." -- "Facts don't lie"? "comes from official connected to the demonstration's organizers"? Excuse me, but when has the left ever used "facts". The adage most appropriate here is, " Figures don't lie... but liars figure a lot".

Excuse me, but when has the left ever used "facts". The adage most appropriate here is, " Figures don't lie... but liars figure a lot".
But speaking of "facts"... fact is that the weather in Washington, D.C. was 58 degrees and Sunny.. and it was on a Saturday in Spring... and Spring Break for schools.. On the other hand, Trump's inauguration day was the 20th of January... on a work day.. in Winter...temperatures in the low 40's.. morning showers.. no umbrellas allowed... security checks at a maximum.. and celebrants had to have TICKETS to get in.
Yes.. "facts are facts".. but "apples ain't oranges". and "half-truths" are still "the blackest of all lies".
On the other hand, Washington protesters were safely guarded from potential mass murder by armed law enforcement officers...
Sunday evening update" CBS announced that proprietary aerial photos and counting logarithms showed the March For Our Lives in Washington attendance peaked at a maximum of about 200,000 ..not the 800,000 'fact' organizers put out.

From the "More NCAA tournament woes" department - Online story" " Michigan advanced to the Final Four for the eighth time in program history thanks in part to a friendly draw aided by a handful of massive upsets around them. Not only did the Wolverines not face a single team seeded fifth or better en route to the West Regional title, they’ll also be favored against South Regional champion Loyola in next Saturday night’s national semifinals." -- "did not face a single team ranked 5th or better"? In actuality, Michigan did not face a team ranked in the Top 20! Each bracket had it's own "seeds" so there were 4 teams of each seeding in the brackets. In fact, Michigan will face an 11th seed, Loyola of Shicago, to get into the finals.. Loyola was a 44th rank team at best.

(*) - Gender dysphoria is not the same as gender nonconformity, which refers to behaviors not matching the gender norms or stereotypes of the gender assigned at birth. Examples of gender nonconformity (also referred to as gender expansiveness or gender creativity) include girls behaving and dressing in ways more socially expected of boys or occasional cross-dressing in adult men. Gender nonconformity is not a mental disorder. Gender dysphoria is also not the same being gay/lesbian.

From the "California's next governor" department - Online headline/story: "Rocket launch will prove Earth is flat, California man says * A California man intends to launch himself 1,800 feet high on Saturday in a home-built rocket to prove that astronauts faked the shape of the Earth. * Mike Hughes, a 61-year-old limo driver, said his stunt will be the first phase of the flat-Earth space program, sponsored by Research Flat Earth, a group that believes Earth is, well, flat." -- You couldn't make up a movie script about this.. Governor Moonbeam followed by Governor Rocketman.

Just looking at Council Post 10 candidate Amy Bryan's job title with the Chamber of Commerce..."Executive Vice President - Community Development and Growth".. Doesn't look like she can run on her record.....
Was looking at Amy Bryan's Financial disclosures.. She lists a Rental; property she owns as valued "Between $5.000 and $100,000", but she does not list an address. Anybody know where this is?

From the "do wish it was this easy to get all repairs tended to" department - L-E headline/story: "Black smoke wasn’t normal for Metra Transit bus on Veterans * Concerned about possible air pollution from the thick smoke, she grabbed her cell phone and sent a picture of the bus for a closer examination. After a photo of the smoking bus was delivered to Metra Transit director Rosa Evans, bus No. 1212 was immediately pulled from the service fleet." -- A simple phone picture got immediate results.. sorry to say it doesn't always work this fast on other City problems. About 2 weeks ago, I sent a picture of the pothole in front of my street to Council, and it still hasn't been fixed...
