@ReillyRick Biggest gaffe was missing Li's 10. He was a contender at that point, and they didn't document the train wreck.

Catastrophic 72nd hole for CBS at the #Masters ... We never saw where Rory's drive landed, never saw where his iron shot ended up and never saw the winning putt sink. Ooops.

@BostonHanSolo I actually think Mike is more vain. Do you see how often he’s in front of a mirror?

It’s NOT good when the Primary Charter Guest is confronting the stew
Combine that w/ Mike LYING to the guest and gaslighting him?!??
Oh Mike might be fired… #BelowDeckDownUnder

@amjohnson53 @AlfhildeO And you probably paid that freebie back many times over in future purchases with Sears. Goes to show genuine goodwill gestures are usually good business
English
@AlfhildeO I'd bought a tulip swag lamp with a white glass globe. My son, just starting to talk, grabbed the globe, proudly said, "Ball!" & "bounced" it on the kitchen floor. I returned to Sears to see if I could buy just a globe. I told the salesman what happened. He gave me a globe, no $!

When i was a kid i spilled juice into my moms thinkpad. It fried the entire laptop. She took it to the electronics store i said "I SPILLED JUICE ON IT" the guy stared at me and went "I thought i heard something. But i think i must have imagined it" and gave my mom a new laptop.

@Dustin_Cone Hate it actually. Not what I’m here for, which is the interpersonal drama
English
@cdent4 @AMikeBloomType I agree. But it started out so strong. I loved the first two episodes, so fun, but it’s quickly devolved
English
@AMikeBloomType Colby was treated like garbage via what we got to see this season. He didn’t deserve the disrespect he got from production. He was the original icon of this show. Survivor 50 has been a letdown so far, and keeps getting worse.

@jimrowe77268 @IrelandOPatrick @TMZ And I doubt taxpayers are covering his gambling. False equivalency

Insider tip (from an estate attorney):
If you set up a Trust, you can name it whatever you want.
Sure, you can go with something standard like “Smith Family Trust”… but you don’t have to.

@tvtalkswithtom Amazing charisma. Plus she doesn’t seem threatening. But it’s primarily the rizz

The mist of Cirie Fields should be STUDIED
She can come into ANY tribe at the bottom and she’ll somehow manage to put herself at the top of the tribe within HOURS.
Absolutely phenomenal.

Private equity firms bought 500 hospitals. Death rates in their emergency rooms went up 13%. They fired 12% of the staff. Then they paid themselves billions in dividends.
A Harvard study just confirmed what doctors already knew: people are dying so investors can hit quarterly targets.
Exactly what happens. A PE firm buys a hospital using debt. The debt gets placed on the hospital's balance sheet, not the firm's. Now the hospital owes hundreds of millions it never borrowed. To service that debt, the hospital cuts costs. Costs mean nurses.
The numbers from the Harvard/University of Chicago study are horrifying. After PE acquisition, emergency department salary spending dropped 18.2%. ICU salary spending dropped 15.9%. Hospital-wide employees were cut 11.6%. Emergency department deaths rose 13%, seven additional deaths per 10,000 visits.
A separate study found patients undergoing surgery at PE-acquired hospitals had 17% higher odds of dying within 90 days.
Steward Health Care, owned by Cerberus Capital, filed bankruptcy with $9 billion in debt after closing hospitals across Massachusetts. The CEO lived on a $40 million yacht while emergency rooms went dark. Eight hospitals serving 2 million people nearly disappeared because a PE fund extracted more cash than the system could survive.
The private equity industry has poured over $1 trillion into healthcare. They operate a quarter of ERs nationwide. This isn't going away.
The investing angle nobody talks about.
Non-PE hospital operators like HCA Healthcare (HCA) and Tenet (THC) are the direct beneficiaries. Every time a PE hospital closes or deteriorates, patients flow to the nearest competitor. HCA has returned 1,200% since 2011. Patient volume from PE closures is a structural tailwind nobody's pricing in.
Medical staffing firms (AMN Healthcare, Cross Country) charge premium rates specifically because PE hospitals cut staff. The staffing shortage IS the business model for these companies.
The disruption play: outpatient surgical centers (SCA Health, now part of UnitedHealth) are pulling profitable procedures out of hospitals entirely. PE-owned hospitals lose their highest-margin surgeries to outpatient, and the death spiral accelerates.
Pull up tradevision and monitor healthcare M&A alerts, hospital closure filings, and patient volume migration data. When a PE-owned hospital announces "restructuring," the patient volume shift to competitors like HCA starts within 30 days. That 30-day window is when the competitor's earnings revisions haven't updated yet. Free to try.
(a private equity firm bought your local hospital. borrowed $500 million in the hospital's name. fired 12% of the nurses. emergency room deaths rose 13%. then they paid themselves dividends. nobody went to prison. they're currently buying another hospital.)

Let’s get one thing straight: We are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian.
Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.

Turns out it was incredibly cool to see my book on a bookshelf at a bookstore and I felt weird but asked someone to take a picture.
