The Gallup Organization turns completely chickenshit when it comes to presidential "approval" ratings. One can only guess they can't seem to be bothered with telling the truth Trump's numbers are in the ditch and getting even lower.

From last August is this article of a press conference by TBI officials that famous or infamous sheriff Buford Pusser (of Walking Tall notoriety) was indeed a wife killer.
Too bad he couldn't be brought to justice, but maybe the 1974 car accident in which he was killed was karma for what he did to Pauline.
At least Pauline's brother and other family members have gotten the satisfaction of learning the truth.
Report from August:

Not that it will happen.

It's good news on the birth front as there are about 24,000 fewer babies born last year than the year previously.

I didn't even know there was an Olympic games this year, but this time it is the winter games, and they are being held in Italy.

It was a Penny for your thoughts at this year's Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show.

Obit: Longtime Indiana congressman Lee Hamilton, 94, has died.
Snip:
Hamilton, 94, was a recepient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom and a longtime scholar on representative democracy at Indiana University after his retirement from Congress, where he served during the presidential terms of Lyndon B. Johnson through Bill Clinton. He died Feb. 3 at his home in Bloomington, his daughter told the New York Times.
Gov. Mike Braun ordered flags across Indiana to be flown at half staff at all state facilities to honor his passing, until sunset on the day of his internment. Braun's office said that information would be shared with the public and called on "all Hoosiers to help honor Hamilton by lowering flags to half-staff at their homes and businesses."
The Heritage Foundation continues its assholery when it comes to higher education. These clowns want to limit women's access to them, denigrate fields like teaching, in order to shore up the outdated notion of marriage. It will fail.
That outfit is full of crackpots, dimwits, and outright fascists.

Not good at his age.
At my school, there are numerous students absent from the most recent flu outbreak.

True crime: Former First Lady Jill Biden was smart to get away from that loser some fifty years ago.
Snip:
William Stevenson, 77, was taken into custody Monday and is facing a charge of first-degree murder in the death of Linda Stevenson, according to a grand jury indictment filed in Delaware.
New Castle County police did not provide details on the death, but an initial release had noted that officers responded to a domestic dispute Dec. 28 at a residence in the Wilmington area.

Obit: Three Dog Night co-founder and lead vocalist Chuck Negron, 83, died yesterday. He died from heart failure and COPD complications.
His group had a slew of hits in the late 1960s and early 1970s. That group was everywhere to be heard.
Snip:
After decades of estrangement between him and Hutton, the two reconciled last year. Hutton and Michael Allsup are the lone surviving members.
Born Charles Negron II on June 8, 1942, he grew up in the Bronx singing in doo wop groups from an early age. His parents divorced when he was 2. He was recruited by UCLA to play basketball, which brought him to Los Angeles, where he began working in the music industry.
Two days ago, Annette Dionne, the last of the world-famous Dionne quintuplets, the first quints born who all survived and, I believe the ON...
