1 I have always believed 'mental illness' to be an essential qualifier for democratic party membership.

2 I believe that he was told that he could not be a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader. The disappointment was too much for him.

3 Interestingly..The Lindner Center in Mason, OH is less than 2 miles from the Warthog ancestral home. Near King's Island Amusement Park.

Maybe the little homunculus was judged not tall enough for the Roller Coster ride and had a meltdown...

Then again.. it's also less than 40 mi. from Wright-Patterson (Wright-Pat) AFB and Hangar 18.
Maybe he is an escaped alien.

4 /\ Maybe he is an escaped alien.

I'll take "escaped aliens" for $600. Alex.

5 The Lindner Center of Hope is beautifully designed, as are a number of other complexes donated around the city by the family. It is rumoured that the psychiatric center was originally built so that a family member could quietly get the treatment he needed in more salubrious surroundings, but like so much else it might just have been the family generosity — I think it was in Vail that we took the trailing daughters to see an entirely unexpected Spanish folk dancing performance in an absolute jewel of a little theater they’d donated, so they’d have additional amusement options when they were there on holiday.

6 Apparently Talarico was at home from 10/1 to 10/8. His campaign supplied the NYT with date stamped security video showing him at home.

Not sure I believe the NYT, but that story more likely than someone getting arrested and/or sued for a HIPAA violation.

Worst flu I ever had put me on the couch for 3 days and day 4 I was still not feeling well.
