Try That in a Small Town

Entertainment 1 Minute

In honor of Jason Aldean’s birthday, I present the lyrics to one of my favorite songs by him…Try That in a Small Town.

Sucker punch somebody on a sidewalk
Car jack an old lady at a red light
Pull a gun on the owner of a liquor store
You think it’s cool, well, act a fool if you like
Cuss out a cop, spit in his face
Stomp on the flag and light it up
Yeah, you think you’re tough

Well, try that in a small town
See how far you make it down the road
‘Round here we take care of our own
You cross that line, it won’t take long
For you to find out, I recommend you don’t
Try that in a small town

Got a gun that my granddad gave me
They say one day they’re gonna round up
Well, that shit might fly in the city, good luck

Try that in a small town
See how far you make it down the road
‘Round here we take care of our own
You cross that line, it won’t take long
For you to find out, I recommend you don’t

Try that in a small town
Full of good ol’ boys, raised up right
If you’re looking for a fight
Try that in a small town
(Try that in a small town)

Try that in a small town
(See how far you make it down the road)
‘Round here we take care of our own
You cross that line, it won’t take long
For you to find out, I recommend you don’t
Try that in a small town
(Try that in a small town)

Ooh, try that in a small town

    NF: Tell me about it!!!

    “Residents of the US midwest have been experiencing strange weather this week. Winter isn’t over, but it feels like spring. People are playing golf in short sleeves, flowers are blooming, and pollen is in the air. Indeed, there’s so much pollen it’s making halos around the sun…” Jefferson City, MO

  7. “Judge rejects Trump bid to pause payment of $454 million fraud penalty amid appeal”
    By Ben Whedon, Just The News

    ENTIRE ARTICLE: “A New York judge on Wednesday rejected former President Donald Trump’s bid to pause enforcement of a $454 million civil fraud penalty from state Attorney General Letitia James’s prosecution while he appeals the decision. Judge Arthur Engoron, earlier this month, levied the penalty after determining that Trump could be held liable for fraud. James had alleged that Trump manipulated the value of his assets to secure favorable loan terms and lower insurance premiums.

    Judge Anil Singh rejected Trump’s proposal to post $100 million bond instead of the full amount, but did pause an order preventing him from seeking loans from New York banks for three years, the Associated Press reported. Trump’s attorneys had proposed the partial payment to secure a stay on collection earlier the same day.

    Trump has appealed Engoron’s judgement and has asked the court to consider whether he “committed errors of law and/or fact” or abused his discretion over the matter. In his order, Engoron fined Trump nearly $355 million in penalties, as well as roughly $100 million in interest. James, for her part, has suggested that she may move to seize Trump’s assets, including his New York properties, if he is unable to pay the sum.

    “We are prepared to make sure that the judgment is paid to New Yorkers, and yes, I look at 40 Wall Street each and every day,” she said earlier this month, in reference to the Trump building.”

    Hackers Set Thursday Ransom Deadline Before Release of Trump Documents

    • Hackers set a ransom deadline of Thursday morning to release Fulton County court documents.
    • They claim the documents include a cache of files related to the criminal case against Donald Trump.
    • An international law enforcement raid took them down earlier this month, but they appeared to quickly recover.

    
    The hacking group responsible for taking down Fulton County’s websites in Georgia is threatening to publish documents from the government’s court system — including ones related to the criminal case against Donald Trump — unless it gets paid a ransom.

    “Norfolk Southern CEO’s Pay Jumped to $13 Million After Toxic Train Derailment in Ohio”
    By Common Dreams, By Thor Benson

    EXCERPT: “Norfolk Southern CEO Alan Shaw got a large raise last year after the train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, that devastated that community. Shaw’s total compensation rose by 37% in 2023, which put it at over $13 million for the year.

    The train derailment, which occurred in February 2023, exposed the community to toxic chemicals that caused a large fire. Though there were no human fatalities, the wreck sparked grave public health concerns and the company has faced major criticisms for what have been described as lax safety practices.

    Jonathon Long, general chairman of the American Rail System Federation of the Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way Employees Division of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, wrote about the problems with the rail company in a letter last year. “I am writing to share with you the level of disregard that Norfolk Southern has for the safety of the railroad’s workers, its track structure, and East Palestine and other American communities where NS operates,” he wrote. “They gamble with your money, and you hold all the risk if they lose by putting a toxic train in the ditch in your community.”

    Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) criticized Shaw’s compensation raise in a tweet on Monday.

    Shaw’s compensation increase last year came despite the fact the company’s net income decreased by 44% in 2023. The company also increased its spending on lobbying by 30% last year. A group of shareholders from the firm Ancora Holdings is trying to replace Shaw and other members of the company’s management with new leadership because it doesn’t feel Shaw is leading the company in the right direction….”

  11. I am adding a short daily prayer to the board. I would invite each of you, if you wish, to also add one or maybe two of your own liking. I do not want to stifle anyone but please limit yourself to one or two religious postings. here’s one I found that I liked.
