As is NYC's annual tradition, the 2023 iteration of Macy's Thanksgiving Parade will feature a star-studded cast of exciting performers.

The stretch along 6th Avenue between West 59th Street and West 38th Street is a great viewing location! But if you want a prime spot, try to arrive no later than 7 a.m. Along 6th Avenue between West 38th and West 34th Streets have extremely limited viewing and should be avoided. Watch it on TV 📺.

Bee fore you decide to go for a bike ride, consider leaving your butt brr hind and walking. It is healthier and much safer Butt-head.

This one has got to bee one is the worst seat around. It would probably bee quite difficult for you to find a worse place to bee sitting anywhere in the world. Imagine if somehow you didn't see the enormous nest or hive of bees that set up camp on your bicycle seat.

You would certainly bee in for the ride of your life within a short amount of time. Despite the sheer horror that this image invokes,.

This very popular delicate track features a single guitar line with only Paul McCartney crooning out The Beatles lyrics is over the top.

Every so often, a few chirps from a bird can be heard as a nod to the song’s opening refrain blackbird singing in the dead of night. This image above is of two of the Little Rock Nine--pioneers of the civil rights movement and John Lennon's inspiration for Blackbird.

ADULTHOOD

We all grow up making life decisions with more successes and fewer failures resulting in lessons that hopefully will allow us to grow.

During the condition of being fully mature, we all walk through the crucial years between adolescence and adulthood. Some of us may choose to work or play, to be straight or gay, to embrace education, or reject it. We can be an optimist or a pessimist, to become a leader or a follower. However, no individual who is a fully grown adult should intentionally break their grandmother and mother’s heart. There is a difference between right and wrong!

I'm attracted to full-figured women with meat on their bones, especially in all the best-placed all-around areas, but Fatphobia ain't it.

YELLOW SUB

Five decades ago The Beatles were changing the world with songs the band recorded is staggering.

Their sheer creative output is part of why they have such a lasting legacy, and it becomes even more overwhelming when you remember they were also movie stars. The quality of those movies varies wildly, but there are several all-time classics among the films The Beatles made together, and none hold up better than Yellow Submarine.

POLLING vs VOTING

Submitted by ub on

The truth is that many people believe lying to pollsters is fair play. Political polling is a lot like the odds on racehorses.

Sometimes, it is more accurate than other times, but it helps if you buy a ticket to win, place, or show. In politics, it is all about winning. I do not have verifiable statistics, but I have sufficient anecdotal knowledge to believe that many people routinely lie to any pollster they encounter if they think it will help the viability of their candidate.
