Via Joe Nerf of Manitoba Myth Busters comes this large banner in downtown Winnipeg that celebrates the return of the NHL. (Incidentally, did you know an anagram for "Thanks True... Which is what The Donald perhaps most resembles - a pruned maître d' - starting at the 12-minute mark of this 21-minute video of Seth Meyers' roast at the 2011 White House Correspondents Dinner the other night, and going on for a little under 3 minutes. Trump is as catatonic as a hood ornament through the grilling; either that, or an artist just out of frame has been hired to sketch him, a blueprint for Trump's own personal Rushmore, to be built next to Mar-a-Lago. (Trump next to three other busts of Trump.) It's worth remembering - even for New Yorkers like me, even for fellow Queens- bred individuals like me - that much of the "people's billionaire" reputation that Trump has leveraged for years is based on a fiction: As Joyce Purnick (also a Queens kid) helpfully points out, the act that first put DT on the map - wresting from the city the renovation of Central Park's Wollman Rink in the 1980s, and bringing in the job ahead of time and under budget, turning him almost immediately into a superhero businessman and entrepreneur - didn't happen that way.

[X] called the Sputnik name drop one of the "W.T.F." moments in the speech, a play of the President's call for "winning the future." > > "Yeah, they won but they also incurred so much debt at the time that it resulted in the inevitable collapse of the Soviet Union," [X] said.
