The downfall of former Congressman Anthony Weiner is well document, so there’s no need to roll over it again here. But just because his emailed and texted pictures cost him his job, Weiner is seeking a comeback considering a run for Mayor of New York City. One problem. Weiner admits [...]
The bombing of the Boston Marathon is a National sore that will be open for many years to come, much like but on a smaller scale as the 9/11 attacks. Americans being terrorized on their own streets is not something likely to go away or be easily dismissed. The killing [...]
For those who’ve been hiding under a rock for several decades, or at the very least don’t pay attention to baseball, there is a tradition at Fenway Park in Boston that can make first-timers wonder “what just happened and why?”, but has become one of those endearing moments in American [...]
