Kudos to both the Chicago Cubs and the Cleveland Indians for a classic World Series

While I'm not a fan of hyperboles, the World Series this year was incredible! Not only was the series incredible, the deciding game - Game 7 - may have been the best such game I've ever seen in the sport. It featured everything: Comebacks, coaching mistakes, rain delays, clutch homers, soon-to-be retirees making critical plays, exhausted pitchers attempting to give more than their capacity, unheard of players making a difference, and a team winning their first championship in 108 years. I'd like to tip my hat to all the players and coaches involved in this year's World Series. To Joe Maddon, Terry Francona, and the rest of the Chicago Cubs and Cleveland Indians, thanks for a classic series. Sporting such young and talented teams, I'm sure we'll be seeing more of this in the future. Best of luck in the offseason and next season, and thanks again. Cubs and Indians fans all over should feel proud.

At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Trump's Lie Tally at the CNN Debate

1) "We had the greatest economy in the history of our country. We had never done so well. Every – everybody was amazed by it. Other countries were copying us." 2) "But the thing we never got the credit for, and we should have, is getting us out of that COVID mess." 3) "The only jobs he created are for illegal immigrants and bounceback jobs; they’re bounced back from the COVID." 4) "Not going to drive them higher. It’s just going to cause countries that have been ripping us off for years, like China and many others, in all fairness to China – it’s going to just force them to pay us a lot of money, reduce our deficit tremendously, and give us a lot of power for other things." (tariffs) 5) "He also said he inherited 9 percent inflation." 6) "No, he inherited almost no inflation and it stayed that way for 14 months. And then it blew up under his leadership, because they spent money like a bunch of people that didn’t know what t...
