Outstanding Golfing Troll
I saw this on Instagram and it made me laugh. I do not know if the sign is real or just Photoshopped. If it is real, it is top-level advertising and trolling. If it is fake, well, it would be funny to see a golf course do this.

The Recycling Folly
The bottom line is that most recycling programs impose a fiscal and personal cost on people for very meager environmental benefits.

Public schools should be places of learning, not propaganda
"Public schools need to focus not on ideology but on intelligent pragmatism. They should focus on both on improving reading and math scores and becoming reliable suppliers of talent to our local companies."

Note for Parents with Kids Going Back to School
I am not saying grades are not important, but I saw this some time ago and I thought, "how much greater could we be if we measured kids in this way?"

Fred Lieb Information Needed; Baseball Writer
I'm posting this in a couple of places on the internet in the hopes that the right person or people might find this.
I am doing a deep research dive into the life of Frederick (Fred) George Lieb. Fred Lieb was a prolific baseball writer who lived from 1888 until 1980. His last published book was Baseball As I Have Known It. Lieb is in the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown as part of the Writers Wing. Fred Lieb dubbed Yankee Stadium "The House That Ruth Built."
I am looking for the hard-to-find items as they relate to Mr. Lieb. Articles, book excerpts, personal correspondence (perhaps you or a family member purchased something at auction), clippings, manuscripts, photos, autographs, etc, etc. Mr. Lieb spent the better part of his later years in St. Petersburg, Florida, writing baseball columns for the St. Petersburg Times as well as for The Sporting News, so perhaps someone from that area has items I would not have uncovered just yet.
I have of course already done some pretty common searches on the internet and have accumulated a few things. I do NOT need to own what you have, but scans and details would be most welcome.
Please reach out to me at SteveParkhurst@gmail.com if you have any items, any questions, or any tips on where I might look next.

Leftist Doesn't See President Trump's Expanded Base
Politidope with a thoroughly uneducated take. Count those who have gone back to work on President Trump's watch as part his base, which supposedly hasn't expanded as the economy has indeed expanded.
This isn't rocket science. Trump won the Electoral College by winning 3 states (WI, MI & PA) by a margin that could fit into Cowboy Stadium with room to spare and hasn't expanded his base since the day he was elected. https://t.co/mW5tZtYCYw— Matt Rogers 🎙 (@Politidope) July 1, 2019
