   A great tune, that tells a story. Back in the day, you had Eric Burdon and The Animals’s Sky Pilot. Then it was Gordon Lightfoot’s (RIP) Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald (which got a lot of play, but also Canadian Railroad Trilogy. Later on, it was Telegraph Road by Dire Straits. Perhaps the most haunting of the tales was And The Band played Waltzing Matilda by Eric Bogle.

   The word “integrity” should never be used by the NFL. There’s less than zero reason for them not to allow a coaches challenge when there’s less than 2 minutes left.

   As for “pressuring” the NFLto bring more integrity into the game……. “Moose. Rocco. Help the Judge find his wallet.”

   Sweet is the preferred, but you can also make the “Perfect” Manhattan by using 1/2oz each of Sweet and Dry Vermouth.

   The Manhattan cocktail should be stirred, not shaken. You water the drink down by shaking it. (Side bar. A Martini {Gin} should also be stirred.)

   “King” Richard Petty did that years ago. He affixed a spoiler to his car and NASCAR ended up banning that. He sat out a year.

    At times, I resemble that remark. There are places where I do back into a parking spot as it’s easier to get out of. The overriding issue with parking “normally” is that people don’t let you back out. You are in the process of backing out, and are more than halfway out, yet a driver HAS to get right on your side/bumper and not let you out. I’m sorry that you feel that way too important that the rest of us.
