I was with a person Saturday night complaining about the Springfield YMCA. Typical ignorantly biased Springfieldian. Shortly thereafter he was on the dance floor happily doing the YMCA. I loved explaining that song to him when he returned to the table.

Lurker, what was his reaction?

He called me a liar and woke as the Village People were not like that and that is not what the song is about. I said thank you on the woke part as I like it’s true meaning but it got testy as I explained who I am and what I think he is. He moved tables.

The Cubs are making a race of it in the Central Division.

Saw “Oppenheimer” in 70mm. This film is going to win some awards. Incredible cinematography. Hollywood has told this same story before, but never with a production on such a grand epic scale. It was really something to see the film on the bigger 70mm screen.

Lurker, maybe he thought The Village People are from The Villages in Florida. There are a lot of Trumpists there and Trump has danced (moved his hands/made jerky motions) to the YMCA at his rallies.
