31… sigh.

Yep, even after he was elevated to Deputy Chief of Staff Bush insisted he never be present at an NSC meeting.

I'd have to go and research this more to find the legal backing, but I know for a fact, that the President has always been allowed to add members to the council as he wishes.

Priebus and Bannon do not require Senate confirmation to placed on the NSC (or more specifically the Principals Committee which is the top of the council).

So now that I am over 30 I am always looking at ways to avoid feeling old (it ain't easy), so I want to congratulate Roger Federer and Serena Williams. A combined 70 years old and champs of the Aussie Open! Heck, the runner ups in both matches (Nadal and Venus) are both on the wrong side of 30.

Sadly, I get the feeling Donald Trump is going to live to be 127 years old just to spite everyone.

I don't know, have Air Force One at your disposal seems pretty fun. Getting hang out with all the sports teams that win the championships is probably cool too.

Well that sucks.

I assume they will just get the same puppeteers that operated Jabba the Hutt in Return of the Jedi.

The horror… the horror…

Looks like Joan Crawford has risen from the grave!

Bolt won the 100m, 200m, and 4x100m at three straight Olympics. He was the first person ever to do it. Actually, he was the first person to ever win those three events at 2 straight Olympics.

So Jamaica lost its 2008 Gold Medal in the 4x100 relay because a frozen sample from Nesta Carter tested positive for a banned stimulant. The IOC is also retesting a sample Carter gave after the team won the 2012 version of the event.

Everything Donald Trump knows about cities he learned from reruns of Good Times.

I'm hoping they made it a carrot cake.

Not to mention Dante and Michelangelo…

I should have posted this earlier, but this weekend saw end of one of North American sports' most amazing streaks; Georgia's 22 year long home win streak in swimming. Texas beat them in a dual meet 171-124 making it the first time the Bulldogs lost in Athens since 1995.

I vaguely recall that they shot a pilot that didn't get picked up, but I think they included it on one of the DVD sets.

I wonder how similar this episode is to the spin off they were going to give Mac's and Charlie's moms.

No reference to Queen whose early albums bragged "no synthesizers were used in the making of the record" but later came to embrace as much as any hard rock band?
