Have to say, the sob parade of Pezzola's family on the stand from his mother to his wife and daughter ... all of them were crying about how their lives would suxk because he's going to jail. Nothing about his actions that got them there.
Mommy Pezzola called him her "hero".

When retailers tell me "you save $534" on a new laptop, I start to wonder what kind of margins they make or if they just jacked up the sticker prices to offer a "discount".

If you make an appointment, show up on time! Three for the this week, so sick of having to wait around for customers to show up ... not even the courtesy to call in advance to let us know they will be late π‘
@Lens I would say allowing a clearly unqualified candidate to run creates even bigger problems later. Just my 2 cents.
@rpardee Those in congress will get their due.
