A second baseman in the World Series just let the ball roll under his mitt, like you’re trained not to do in tball. He’s making $74M over 5 years.

Meanwhile I’m debating whether my budget can allow more pacifiers.

Nixon watched “Patton” there. Obama hosted the “Lincoln” cast. Built in 1942, the White House’s private movie theater offered refuge and entertainment.
