As Stanford plays Saturday Nov 2 against NC State, the Cardinal will now have played two more games against each of teams from North Carolina and Texas than they will have against teams from Calfiornia.

NY Yankees especially in game 5 of the World Series bring to mind a very old joke. What do the NY Yankees and Michael Jackson have in common? They both wore gloves on one hand for no discernible reason.

One brighter note on Dodger victory for anyone outside Los Angeles. The last time they won a World Series, Trump lost a Presidential election. If that’s the devil’s bargain in 2024, I’ll take it.
Why isn’t this a bigger story? Wisconsin Senator Tammy Baldwin wrote the ACA provision to allow young people to stay on their parents health insurance until they are 26.
Her opponent Eric Hovde wants to take that away. “It’s a stupid idea for this reason. All we’re doing is delaying younger people’s maturation. “And they need to grow up and move on and stand on their own two feet.
Of course Hovde is a multi-millionaire. If one of his kids’ had graduated from college and wanted to do an internship or study as a grad student without benefit, he’d either help them with insurance or medical bills.
(Dave McCormick, a hedge fund mega-millionaire has made similar statements. Pretty damn sure his kids have nothing to worry about either.

JD Vance says he’s been “red-pilled” on vaccines. Oh, please, does anyone think HIS kids aren’t vaccinated?

Is it possible that Trump’s speeches are becoming increasingly lengthy because he thinks there’s a good chance after November 5 no one will want to pay any attention to anything he says again?
The biggest rating he’s going to get for an appearance after November 5 might be for the one that will start “Will the defendant please rise.”

Oops: MAGA Mike Johnson, campaigning for NY GOP Rep Brandon Williams was asked if he’d repeal Biden’s CHIPS Act.
Which per NY TImes brought “$100 billion worth of investment in semiconductor industry to Syracuse area. “I expect we probably will,
– Williams soon jumped in to say that he opposed repealing the CHIPS Act and would lobby the speaker.” They are so bad at governing.

How can Presidential candidate say of Liz Cheney “Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with 9 barrels shooting at her. Let’s see how she feels about it. You know, when guns are trained on her face.”
Most would be arrested. Media still hung up on Biden’s garbage phrasing.
NY Times “Trump Attacks Liz Cheney Using Violent War Imagery.” Understand space is at a premium, but it doesn’t take more space to write the truth: “Trump Calls for Liz Cheney to be Executed by Firing Squad.”
–
Give Trump credit for one accomplishment. Gotten me to believe that for all I disagree with her on so many things, Liz Cheney is an admirable and brave patriot.
As we approach final weekend before election, remember, confirmation bias makes it very difficult to change a vote.
Much easier, convincing someone not planning to vote that their vote matters. If our votes didn’t matter, GOP wouldn’t be trying so hard to take them away.
