Actual shot (not AI!) of a French detective working the case of the French Crown Jewels that were stolen from the Louvre in a brazen daylight robbery. Somehow he looks like he’s smoking even without a cigarette in his hand, but surely everything you know about life is screaming

The timing still is working out for our strongest frontal passage of the season just in time for Halloween. Strong north winds will kick in and temps take the largest dip so far. Highs might spend a few days in the 60’s. Your fall clothes will get their first use🍁👻🎃 #lawx

I’ve never had a car payment; I’ve a car saving fund. When one car dies, I buy another, used, cash. Hence never in debt, more money the most.
Why do "lower-income" Americans have car payments? Growing up we had "beaters" because we were "lower-income." And even when I started at well-paying law firm, my car was used $3,000 one. Didn't have car payments for another 3 years once I got finances in order.

FYI: the East Wing of the White House is a modern 1942 addition; offices and a now unused bomb shelter.
Teddy Roosevelt built the West Wing. Taft made the Executive Office oval. FDR added the entire East Wing and included an indoor pool for himself. Truman gutted the entire White House. Nixon added a bowling alley. Obama added a basketball court. Trump is building a ballroom.
