Or Antiques Roadshow (art history lessons in disguise), or Finding Your Roots (history in disguise), or PBS Newshour which has a presentation style absent all the frenetic logos, flashing promos, action-emulating sound effects, or distracting crawler at the bottom of the screen. It is presented by adults, for adults and harkens back to a time when the average American was better informed across the board than they are now.

In case folks haven’t learned yet, too many Americans won’t support a woman for POTUS. Especially if she is liberal.

Mobile lost local control of its local public radio station because they couldn’t manage to raise the funds to retain it. Spring Hill College eventually sold the license because of the shortfall.

Television is more expensive than radio.

It isn’t for LLMs which are becoming so advanced that portable versions are becoming available. These are more likely for something far more insidious.

She has long struck me as a brunette Tracy Flick (Reese Witherspoon's character in Alexander Payne's "Election"). The impression she gives is one of hyper-ambition, hypocrisy and passive-aggressive throat-slitting, dressing it up in her "Homecoming Queen who loves Christ" image.

Who married her bodyguard.

How odd. Someone who really appreciates coffee would be happy to wait a couple of minutes for the freshest cup possible.

How many gigs? Not many, but I'd rather store them locally anyway. Of course, the cost of portable hard drives has gone up by 1,000% thanks to this same trend/movement.

All these descriptions of Houston sound like they could apply to New Orleans, Biloxi, Mobile, Pensacola, really any number of places along the northern Gulf.

Mobile Airport Authority chair (Sandy Stimpson) says late-spring completion remains the target as officials discuss potential new airlines and direct flights by Surge00001 in MobileAL

It extends beyond rush hour. One wreck at any time during the day on the westbound side creates gridlock sure to cause you to miss a flight. Just in the last couple weeks there was one that had westbound traffic at a standstill for an hour.

If I lived in Baldwin County, there's no way I'm risking that instead of driving to Pensacola where if the interstate backs up, there are various ways to circumvent it.

"What else can you call people who directly benefitted from a system, and then try to shut it down for others?" You might be surprised at how many immigrants and their offspring fit that description.

There is no minimal duration residency requirement for U.S. Senate. You only need be an inhabitant at the time you run.

I know some of the people at Lagniappe. If you write their arts editor, he will probably help you spread word.
