Every time Trump talks about the ballroom he's like, "it's big, it's beautiful, and as a bonus I can use it as an impregnable fortress when I refuse to step down as president"

You have 6.5 billion dollars, your wealth is an insult to human dignity and was built on the stolen labor of others. You use your immense wealth to lobby for continued inequity. What do you order

If Helen of Troy isn't a bodacious blonde babe I will burn down the world. I am a very serious man and a titan of industry.

I'm watching Michael Mann's Hannibal Lecter movie, Manhunter. Mann kicks so much ass, he's like if one of your dad's drinking buddies was also a generational filmmaking talent

What I mean when I say "the Lord's work"

I need everyone to see this

What a great photo just added on the NASA Johnson Flickr page www.flickr.com/photos/nasa2...

"a stock market for opinions" is something a stupid person makes up

Nothing has ever been more true about Philadelphia
