One stat I always liked is Hank and Tommie Aaron hold the career home run record for brothers, and it’s Tommie’s 13 that put them over the top.
My avatar corresponds on my place in the Swamp posting list with the all-time Home Run list. Number 45 is Paul Konerko with 439.

The Swamp remains dedicated to providing an inclusive environment for all Swampers and any person using derogatory language will be mocked or ignored until they hopefully up and leave on their own.
Thank you for your service.

Fez Whatley. Half or Ron and Fez. Not sure how widely known but they were syndicated and part of the group that tried to pick up after Stern left terrestrial radio

I've never actually been on Only Fans, but I thought that's all it was. Oh, "explicit videos," so no full on porn videos, but pics of naked/nearly naked is still OK. That actually makes sense.

And who is going to be sitting there with the delete button making the decision on whether a pic/video is just nudity, or if its sexually explicit?

From the Bloomberg article it sounds like they can't raise more money due to a) worries about underage posts, and b) some investment funds have rules about being involved in adult industries.

I'm qualified to do that job! (remember, I had to watch seized porn at Customs and Border Protection to determine if it was illegal to import)

Yes, I ate there because of the movie.

That's a great song. Also remember his song "I Like" a very sweet song that if I recall properly had the line - "And I like grass."

This album is a pretty big part of my childhood. My dad would randomly break out into songs from it throughout my youth, and then picked it right back up again when I had kids. When I told him today that Hall had passed, he very quickly gave his rendition of "Sneaky Snake".
