The first picture here is some of the suggestions for names and logos for our local professional minor league baseball team that started playing last year. These ideas were submitted by normal members of the community. Look at how bright and fun they are - and each idea celebrates some aspect of local culture. Literally any one of these would have been better than what the bureaucrats settled on.
The second picture shows what the bureaucrats settled on after spending a million dollars and doing tons of “research”. Look at how daggaum ugly and stupid the Tri-State Coal Cats logo is. If the people getting to make these decisions fell into a field of flowers, they’d land in the only spot with briars. I wish the Appalachian League of professional baseball would kick them out, make them fire the bureaucrats, and start over.

Out here, a little light goes a long way. You don't need to push back the whole night, just enough of it to see your next step.

Damp insulation won't keep you warm. Dry your layers whenever the sun gives you the chance, because the woods won't remind you before nightfall.
