If I were dumb enough to be President I would use just one, a favorite fountain pen with the Sailor Japanese nanoparticle black ink. That's it. Let people get their own souvenirs

Has Trump actually signed a bill into law yet? Outside of his near daily royal decrees (fka Executive Orders) I can't recall an actual law he has signed into being.

I always thought the multiple pen thing was ridiculous. I remember reading somewhere once that those signings are just ceremonial, that the President actually signs the bill into law with a normal one pen signature in a private setting.

the only people who should throw back home runs are cubs fans. i boo fans elsewhere that do so. just as i boo fans doing the wave. terrible behavior.

At Wrigley many years ago, someone tried to start a wave. Dude stands up behind me, yells in the direction of the wave: "Hey, we don't do that here! Take that shit to Comiskey!"

That was you, wasn't it?

:D

All I remember about Wrigley Field was $.85 twelve ounce beers and crazy people in the center field bleachers. (1976-1980)

No, but that guy is a national treasure and deserves his own bobblehead.

All I remember about Comiskey is having the pay one of the neighborhood urchins to watch/protect your car. At Wrigley you could park in a convent's front yard and the nuns collected the fees in their full flying nun garb.

My first time to Wrigley I was the guest of a diehard Cubs fan. I scored a great pair of lower grand tickets while he was parking the car. He took one look at them, said get rid of these and we ended up in the center field bleachers. We sat near Bill Veech (legendary White Sox owner)-he and a bunch of other old coots would bet on ever pitch and had kids running the cash up and down the aisle. Great place to see a game.

He has signed about 25 pieces of legislation. However, the vast majority are not of substance. It's like naming a monument, or a resolution saying that Congress supports women entrepreneurs, but not doing anything specifically about it. The one piece that had some substance was disapproving the Obama FCC regulation which would have prevented ISP's from selling their customer's personal information to advertisers. Pretty much everyone in the country was against it, but AT&T and Comcast were thrilled. So there you go. He has one legislative "achievement."
