want to see Dominican Republic face Japan in the WBC final, we deserve it. I love the energy their fans bring to the park. Baseball atmosphere at its finest

I think we need to take a step back and acknowledge the absurdity of House Republicans targeting their Epstein investigation on HILLARY CLINTON (who says she never met him!) while ignoring DONALD TRUMP (who Epstein described as his best friend!)

46 years to the day since Lake Placid
an absolutely incredible game
I’ll admit it’s not been an easy read thus far! Seems Melville hadn’t yet perfected his prose and his style at that point. Good bits, though

Photo of Frederick Douglass, who some say was the most photographed person of the 19th century
Happy birthday to one of the greatest, Frederick Douglass. Born into slavery, he didn't know his actual birthday, but chose to celebrate it on this day.
Please read his books and essays; please teach your children his story when they are old enough to understand.
now reading this paperback edition I found in New Paltz, NY
