News Of The Week Roundup: Week 27, 2021

Last week felt incredibly long to me. The best things to happen for me was the premieres of both Big Brother and Love Island. I love my summer trash TV. Both serve as a good distraction to life right now.


There were a few big news stories over the past week. Rescue crews gave up searching for survivors in the Miami condo collapse and switched to a search and recovery mission. This small miracle did happen:



An alert hotel maid may have stopped a Las Vegas-like shooting massacre at the MLB All-Star Game. I hope this employee receives a large cash award.



Richard Branson and Virgin Galatic shot off into space this morning. The billionaire space race is on!



As the world continues to reopen at difference paces thanks to COVID-19 vaccines, the United States hit a big concert milestone in Las Vegas last night.



The problem is that huge pockets of low-vaccinated areas of America are creating COVID hot-spots again. Missouri is surging like never before and hospitals are diverting because of capacity issues.



Things in Mississippi are so bad, folks are encouraged to avoid big indoor events (again). Get your shots, people!




The President of Haiti was assassinated. It seems some Americans may have been involved.


Former President and First Lady Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter celebrated 75 years of marriage. An amazing milestone.



And I leave you with this:

Wonder why Wisconsin wants Colby to be their State Cheese when Cheddar is what they’re known for …

Oh, that’s right, this is the state that picked ingrate Ron Johnson as a U.S. Senator and moron Scott Walker as Governor …

Well, at least they somehow had the sense to pick the right person to be President this last go around …

Metalboy! Stay in your lane when it comes to all things Wisconsin. Don't get me started on what or who is right or wrong for this state. Guess you've been watching the left channels to get your opinion on WI politics. Live here first and then have an opinion.

Facts are facts ? That's a good one. I wish that was always the case, but to talk about Governor Scott Walker or Congressman Ron Johnson without living in Wisconsin, you come off as a lemming marching to whatever fits an agenda of control and free rides.

Sometimes it takes hard stances on issues to get change.

You are great at music and knowledge and even stances on world issues Metalboy!, but please don't just be one of those that agree to align yourself. Otherwise you become defined by taking one side of an issue of what you truly are. Everyone has faults, but people do great things for their respective consituents and state without disregard for what outsiders think.

Well said GNR! Unfortunately we have too many people in our country behaving this way. They speak on issues in other states that they know nothing about. They hear what a slanted. Media feeds them and regurgitate it as fact. Knowing all the words to Dirty Deeds doesn’t make anyway a political savant.
