This thread just inspired me to write a play: The Best Bus Company.
I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

My Dad worked at that Ford plant back when it made steel. Proud of this Ford Detroiter and I will wear my Dad's factory coat today as a tribute to him. If are interested in a glimpse into what it's like to be Muslim working in Metro Detroit, read Dearborn by Ghassan Zeineddine.

I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland.

Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

Bob Weir's last song on his last album was the allegory One More River to Cross where he is crossing a series of rivers, but needs the help of his companion. We all need that help to cross the harsh landscape of life.
'And when I cross over, he'll go running free.'
