$10 pitchers of Guinness at Nite Owl off Wads and Mississippi.

Serious pitchers too, glass, not those shitty little plastic ones.

Sue CNN into (further) oblivion by claiming copyright infringement on the Apple brand.

Just shut up and do it, I don't pay you to disagree with me.

You hate CNN, were thinking of buying more Apple as a shareholder, and see this blatant rip-off associated with your product because they are a dying organization trying to grasp some relevancy in 2019, so you assault the Apple brand.

Why all it takes in one Judge willing to the next hero, like our great American hero Colin Kapernick.

Just look at each and every yard he gained to keep Aaron from his second (that would have been one more than Brett Favre) Super Bowl title.

Florida Dem admits lying about treating Pulse shooting victims after going on the record as saying 'I personally removed 77 bullets from 32 people. It was like an assembly line'
Elizabeth McCarthy told the Florida Department of Health that she had fabricated claims that she was a cardiologist who had treated victims
'I lied. It is a false statement. I just made it up,' McCarthy said, according to an affidavit released Wednesday
The department charged her with violating state law under the unlicensed activity statutes
On Wednesday, she was served with a cease-and-desist order which would prohibit her from telling anyone else that she is a medical doctor

There is no stronger discrimination allowed today than in Hollywood.

The sex slave aspect thrives today as always, but it contains within it so many fags most people just don't care.

The accounting is hanging-offense level for thousands.

We certainly aren't likely to watch the Grammy Awards.
But this years awards, it turns out, included something interesting.

Well, to me anyway.

So very belatedly - this is Angela Aguilar, Natalia Lafourcade and Aida Cuevas each singing a different take on "La Llorona", which is I guess topical because there is a movie out.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdWgysitPgU

All are professional pop singers in Mexico.
Aguilar is rather low-energy. poor young thing.
Lafourcade gets it. I find her mixed, in general. She has overdone the intimately breathy eating the mike thing way too often, but when she doesn't, she doesn't.
Cuevas is a veteran of "ranchera", that is, what we in the US may think of as trad Mexican music. And here she is wearing her trademark charro hat.

"La Llorona" is properly folk music and about as Mexican as anything gets.

There was a discussion the other day about what "real" Mexicans look like - well, I put it that these three ladies are fairly representative of the majority, somewhat filtered by showbiz of course. Though fairly attractive, none is a great beauty, none are ringers brought in for a telenovela, and they are all mestizas, with a visible degree of india.

Both Cuevas and Lafourcade have covered much of Agustin Lara. Which is worth a post. Maybe later. Mexican music (or the good stuff) is not what blasts out of cars in LA.

“$10 pitchers of Guinness at Nite Owl off Wads and Mississippi”

Never been there, but been by enough. Checked your profile just to make sure I had the right (city and) state. We have some apartments a couple miles north of there.

Several years ago, my kid texted me, from somewhere in Europe, whether I preferred a hat or a T short. I picked “hat”. At Christmas, I got a Guinness hat. They had popped up to Dublin from Spain for the weekend (London was twice as much). This was their Junior Semester Abroad. Their other trip out of Spain was to Italy, where they ended up walking almost entirely around a country in an hour or so, trying to find the way in. This last winter they were back in Dublin, this time for a conference, and I got a T shirt. Their significant other was more impressed with the Jamison facility.

Long way of saying, I love Guinness, esp their Stout, esp served on tap a bit warmer than you usually drink beer here. Though I expect that we will be drinking some from bottles this week, with family arriving tomorrow. If I were back in the area of Wads and Mississippi, I would be joining you.

Axios recently opined:
“America, as a whole, and swing states, in particular, are growing more diverse, more quickly. There is no way Republicans can change birth rates or curb this trend–and there’s not a single demographic megatrend that favors Republicans,” the report stated. In less than ten years, most under age 30 in the U.S. will be non-white. And 59 percent of Millennial voters are already registered Democrats.

And Commentary concludes:
The Republican Party’s demographic future is fraught. In that sense, it perfectly aligns with the behavior of our current president. But its demise is not inevitable. A Democratic Party that fails to resist the radicalism of its progressive wing could hand the Republicans an opportunity to attract diverse, moderate Democrats into the fold, provided Republicans are willing to make a vigorous commitment to diversify their party .

So it's all about Paul Simon and Julio down by the schoolyard.

Wholesale alcohol is disturbingly inexpensive. Generally food is the loss leader...

...and I must concur- a pitcher of Guiness? There’s a process to pour a proper glass. It does not involve a pitcher.

Watching The Open this week there’s this bar character what demonstrates a proper pour. Later he discusses the toucan. Just think what toucan do.

One thing has surprised me about the emergence of women’s football into public consciousness, namely its suddenness. In this respect, it is a bit like the Olympics for handicapped people or the prominence of transsexualism. It all seems somewhat less than spontaneous. If I did not know better, I would say that it was orchestrated, in which case the most interesting question is, What will they, whoever they are, orchestrate next?

I can think of one megatrend that favors Republicans—the megatrend that as people grow up they become more conservative. The rest is just Democratic cool-aid. The notion that increased ethnic diversity is bad for Republicans is a left-wing smear they've been peddling for generations.

If we didn't know that Occupy was a creation of an ad agency in Canada we might not be as suspicious. Or that all the movements coordinate perfectly with the election cycle, or in the case of #MeToo/Kavanaugh with the SCOTUS nomination process. Is Harvey in jail yet? The NY jail people's office must be busy with all that Trump stuff...funny how Harvey's mess kinda went away with the soccer girl power thing...

It's cool how they'e sometimes willing to attach a smaller thing on to a larger thing like the way they graciously attach killing cows, peta 'pet' project on to the lager globalist climate change thing.

Whatever the next thing is it will dovetail nicely with what's thought to be needed to win the election cycle. That's if I didn't know better...

Better yet, avoid the "diversity" or color judgments (e.g. racism), judge the people... persons by their character, and accept by them in their different shapes, sizes, colors, sexes, genders, etc. We live in euphemistic times.

If you are talking about "soccer" it hasn't been all that sudden..it's been building since the early 1990's.

If they are talking about things like lingerie American football, I would argue that it hasn't entered into public consciousness.
