I admit to loving and laughing out loud at this terrific Emirates Airlines commercial. I mean, c’mon — who hasn’t TAKEN A SHOWER! on an airplane? *
This is right up there with the hedonism of Led Zeppelin installing a fireplace on their jumbo jet.
Attention SNL: Needs to be parodied, but use Melissa McCarthy.

Imagine burrowing into Trump’s anal cavity with such perverted affection that this mindless MAGA stooge wastes his time defacing United States currency with a rubber stamp.
This soiled $20 bill somehow landed in my pocket today. Later, I’ll take this hopelessly mutilated currency and exchange it for a fresh clean twenty-dollar bill.
Yes ———- they’re a cult.

WHO ELSE YELLS AT THE TV?
Recently, Ken Kubey posted here on Facebook that he watches sporting events and occasionally yells at the television. I confessed that I also do this. I expect many of you sometimes yell at the TV, too.

Boring Commercials, Lame Announcing, a Horrid Halftime Show, and a Screeching Eagles’ Spike-the-Ball-in-Your-Face Ass-Kicking that Would Have Put Hunter S. Thompson to Sleep
We were way overdue for a dud with a thud. And what we got was a bomb.
After nearly a decade of thrilling Super Bowl finishes that usually went down to the closing minutes or even seconds, instead the world that was still awake witnessed an ass-kicking on Sunday in New Orleans. Unless you’re a Philadelphia fan or an Eagles’ bettor, or some kind of sick masochist grave dancing all things Chiefs and Mahomes, Super Bowl LIX was a miss and a splat that took 4 hours and 23 minutes to play to a merciless conclusion, but was effectively decided long before the halftime rapper. Kansas City-style barbecue may be popular, but the Chiefs ended up getting smoked in their own slow cooker. Their tender offensive line split apart like a rack of baby backs.
Lots to cover. Several thoughts:

FINAL END-OF-SEASON BETTING RESULTS:
I’ll talk straight and simple here.
This was a tough season. Very tough.
I struggled along the way, hoovering around the break-even mark for several weeks during the midseason. Some things I uncovered worked. Others failed. Fortunately, I also closed the season strongly, ending up at +25 games above the .500 mark and a +7.93 percent profit margin.
Are those results great – no. But for free content (thanks to BetCoin.ag for providing a free public platform), I think it’s pretty good. I’ll also be glad to end another season on a winning note and plus-money record. For those keeping score, that’s 10 winning seasons and 3 losing seasons since 2012, and all those results are verifiable (see: nolandalla.com).

EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE….
WHAT THE HELL DO WE DO NOW?
“I may not have remarkable victories, but I can amaze you with the defeats I have survived.”
— Chekhov

Like me, many of you are confused right now. You’re angry. You’re exhausted. You have no idea what to do next — that is, if anything can be done at all.
Oh, and we’re only on Day 16 of presumably 1,461 — and whatever apocalyptical abyss lies beyond.

TRUMP’S GHASTLY BLAME GAME
After watching a despicable rambler slinging countless lies and heaping unsubstantiated blame onto all of his political opponents while dead bodies are still being pulled out of the Potomac River, I cannot come up with the proper sentiment to express the ghastly horror of what we all just saw and heard from such a little man so consumed by pettiness and brimming with revenge. What crass stupidity. What inhumanity. What deliberate cruelty.
Am I surprised? No. Am I shocked? No. This is precisely what was expected, and there’s going to be lots more of it yet to endure.
Here, I’ll quote from someone else who says it best:

GRADING THE BIDEN PRESIDENCY:
JUSTICE / LEGAL / CRIME
Grading the chief executive’s record on crime is largely superfluous. That’s because most crime-fighting and the mechanics of criminal justice take place at the local level. Personnel, prioritization of enforcement, allocation of resources, courts, jails, and even many prisons are strictly matters for state and local governments. The executive branch impacts crime across the country relatively little, by comparison. In fact, the federal judiciary is far more impactful on local crime than any policies originating within the White House.
