Armstrong got and gets a lot of flak, and he stopped being on the cutting edge early. But I tell you, listen to the straight blues from even late in his career and you hear his soul come through. Maybe the corny stuff was just a man who'd had a hard life trying to be happy? 89.9 FM / wkcr.org

"NFL player" is a new slang term for some special kind of joint, right? If so, mayyybe.
Boneless Wings…LoverDo you think you take a hit from a NFL player and not fumble the ball at your age?

That DA is now a 🎯 for the cops, and probably was before. Good on them, though!
Philadelphia InquirerAn investigative review ordered by the Bucks County DA’s Office recommended no new criminal charges for high school students or police involved in a clash during a February anti-ICE demonstration in Quakertown, but the report sharply criticized the borough’s police chief, Scott McElree.
