I think the fact that Senator John McCain’s mother is still alive at 106 years of age is under-reported. She’s survived her husband by 37 years.
Armchair Conspiracy Theorist Time – The NFL owners are getting agitated at Jerry Jones, which has been building for some time, but especially now with the national anthem. The #MeToo movement is about to his Jerry Jones this season as a way to either oust him or diminish his influence, and one or several owners will be behind the accusations becoming public.
The Top 50 includes ten Energy and eleven Healthcare companies. Insurance provider Brighthouse Financial topped the GPPE ranking. Pharmaceuticals, Gilead Sciences and Celgene, and Altria Group, a Tobacco company, were the runner-ups.
In Revenue Per Employee, pharmaceutical supplier AmerisourceBergen was ranked second, but for GPPE, the company drops into 192nd place, having a gross margin of only 3%, and GPPE of $227,300.
Compared to Revenue Per Employee, GPPE brings Technology companies, including Facebook and Apple, significantly higher the rankings. Due to their low cost of revenue, Verisign, Alphabet, Mastercard, Broadcom, and Intuit all appear in the Top 50.
Missed the Deadspin story in yesterday’s BON regarding the infiltration of sexual assault survivor groups by Baylor. Amazing. I don’t believe the NCAA is going to use the Death Penalty to shock college athletic programs back into proper behavior ever again (sorry SMU). I offer as evidence Baylor’s tone death approach to athlete rape; Michigan State’s continuing avoidance of accepting responsibility for Larry Nassar; Ohio State looking for any rationale to avoid seriously addressing the protection of a staff member who is a wife abuser by the head coach; Penn State turning a deaf ear to continuing reports of a serial child abuser being allowed to remain on staff year after year; University of North Carolina defends the existence of fake courses for athletes; and on; and on; and on…….. Just shut it all down and convert everything to intramurals. I am done with Division I college athletics.
I’ve always thought that Jerry Jones would get caught up in a “me too” scandal or maybe even something involving racial insensitivity. His defense of Jerry Richardson went almost amazingly unnoticed.
I had a coworker that drove a Prius plug in model for a few years and it had a noisemaker for when it ran all electric. It sounded a little like the hum of an electric motor.
Joey Gallo and Jurickson Profar have played all over the field for the Rangers this year. I’ve always questioned playing young players out of position and what it does to their development, but both of them have improved this year. Gallo has played 1B and all 3 outfield positions and hasn’t made a single start at his natural position of 3B. Profar has played all 4 infield positions with 1 start in left.
“The #MeToo movement is about to his Jerry Jones this season as a way to either oust him or diminish his influence . . .”
I know you see no need for proofreading before you submit (and that’s too bad), but sometimes it really interferes with understanding and interrupts the flow of the reading.

I wonder if they’ll have configurable sounds for the electric cars.
I’d want mine to sound like the cars from the Jetsons.
