THIS! I am hoping that the first thing Bill Clinton does as first dude is bake cookies. :D
Plenty of people are excited.
I’m reading it now. He’s a really good writer. You KNOW the book wasn’t ghost written! It is absolutely his voice; dadjokes, hamminess and all.

That record still gets to me even decades later.Brilliant! After reading his autobiography, Darkness has even more meaning.

Ugh. :(
Listen, I’m going to take this as a sign that a long-cursed entity can defeat a racist mascot — and that it can happen twice in one week. Go Hubbies!
Grew up in Chicago. Now live in Seattle. Am a cubs fan.
I think we can safely presume that he will be fired/asked to resign/sent to Siberia sooner rather than later.
