There is a Santa Anna joke in here somewhere…

There it is
I paid 30,000 units for it, now I’m heading to Knowhere to sell my orb for 4 billion units to The Broker.
Hopefully it all works out.

Just looking for a leg up, is that so bad?
Comment by PublicServant Tuesday, Aug 31, 21 @ 6:42 am
Well. I’m stumped

Leg day.

“It was at that point that Jack pondered his next steps. Turn north, and return home to the bustle of civilization from which he came. Turn South and venture out on to rhe open road, and the clear unknown future which it held. Or maybe a third option, to stay, to find a new love in the rural roads of the Macon County line.”

SOS has finally retired the “Cyberdrive Illinois” moniker for their website. For the first time since probably about 2000 or earlier (since cyberdrive seems so Y2Kish).
https://www.ilsos.gov/home.html
However, they’ll have to update their latest appointment system promo ad as it still has CyberdriveIllinois on it. Which we discussed on here last Wednesday:

Might make a great stocking stuffer for someone come Christmas.

The weather’s been rough
I think I’ve had enough
The farm is taking its toll
Each day I feel it’s a little unreal
It feels like it’s time to roll
When I got hurt in the field
I refused to yield
Keeping the beat of my day
But what I need is fun, think I’ll go on the run
I’ll see you when I feel ok
If you see my leg, it’s my calling card
It means I was out your way
Don’t worry, it’s fine, happens all the time
I’ll see you when I’m feeling ok
Now my leg and me, you’d think we’d be wed
It seems to find its own adventure so it’s been said
When we finally unite it’s like an old friend
Then I know I’m ok
If you see my leg, it’s my calling card
It means I was out your way
Don’t worry, it’s fine, happens all the time
I’ll see you when I’m feeling ok

Aren’t the Bears looking for a kicker?

In other news, Senator Tammy Duckworth’s campaign launched a search for a new travel director.

47th. Good stuff but borderline. I like.

Bailey left the only leg he had to stand on.

Where’s the “Lincoln Once Took This Road” sign? He most likely had to while on the lawyer circuit.

Where is the rest of the lamp?

Several IHOP jokes to be made here.

Excellent Guardians of the Galaxy reference to start out the morning. Kudos.

Who knows, maybe at that site Lincoln had to stop the horse and do a “live in nature” stop before continuing.

Not exactly how I planned to kick off my day, but it’ll work.
Comment by Dance Band on the Titanic Tuesday, Aug 31, 21 @ 9:16 am
I believe that leg belongs to Eileen (pronounced “I lean”)
Comment by Jocko Tuesday, Aug 31, 21 @ 9:19 am
3 People killed in Normal and 3 injured that is not good news this am and we don’t get that around here. I wonder?
Comment by clec dcn Tuesday, Aug 31, 21 @ 9:26 am
There are times when you know you probably shouldn’t laugh so hard at a “borderline” joke? 47th, good work, and thank goodness we aren’t fully gagged and bound by the fun police.

Now they’ll have to redraw the House districts again.

“Where is the rest of the lamp?” Somebody used up all of the glue. On purpose.

I’m starting to see Bailey and Devore signs in local neighborhoods.
Comment by Southern Tuesday, Aug 31, 21 @ 10:17 am
It’s a major award.
Comment by Give Me A Break Tuesday, Aug 31, 21 @ 10:20 am
It shouldn’t be about the leg. Where is the missing rest of him?
Comment by Bruce( no not him) Tuesday, Aug 31, 21 @ 10:32 am
Reminder to watch the ongoing Paralympics. USA doing getting lots of medals.

Someone got a little fired up doing the hokey pokey.

I had forgotten about this, but a movie about Dennis Rodman’s Vegas adventures during the ‘98 NBA Finals is forthcoming:

Unless I missed it in yesterday’s comments, I finish reading the Rodman movie story and it’s followed by one about some fans fighting in the stands at Sunday’s Sox blowout of the Cubs:

===some fans fighting in the stands===
Comment by Rich Miller Tuesday, Aug 31, 21 @ 11:55 am
==The first fight was iconic because a Cubs fan yelled something racist and people in the section literally bullied him until he left==
Was the shirtless guy in the fight the one that yelled the racist stuff?
Comment by NonAFSCMEStateEmployeeFromChatham Tuesday, Aug 31, 21 @ 11:59 am
Dirty nasty leg.
Comment by FormerParatrooper Tuesday, Aug 31, 21 @ 12:17 pm
oh wow, the white guy whose shirt game off and was shirtless for the rest of the fighting yelled something racist,??? probably at the guy in the black shorts and white shirt…who is a Black man…and who climbed up the bleachers towards racist Cub guy, did not touch him, but was attacked by the racist guy. the fight went on for a long time.
