American Football, CULTURE, Dining & Nightlife

Originally A #12 Hit Single Recorded For Columbia Records In 1969…..This Featured Version Is From A Re-Issue On The “Solid Rock” Label That I Think Delivers A Better Overall Sound Quality Than The Original Pressing. The Original Was A Bit “Muddy” Sounding While The Re-Issue Has Better Mids, Highs & Presence…….BTW, I misspelled “Staircase” as “Staircase” in the video’s closing title. Oops! Hear this great song on internet radio […]

‘Not even #Lincoln’ is safe’! Presidential statue found burned in Chicago sparks disgust

General

There have been many statues of confederate figures in U.S. history that have been either vandalized or removed by cities recently, but the vandalism has apparently expanded to non-confederate historical figures, according to a Chicago alderman: Lincoln statue found burned on #Chicago's South Side: Alderman https://t.co/PwrIiCnjia pic.twitter.com/jFQmWTbF9R — NBC Chicago (@nbcchicago) August 17, 2017 Ugh.
