A week away from the election, @DanProft things the Illinois GOP could learn from legendary coach John Wooden. Stop defining the party by our opponents. Time to start developing talent and executing well, trusting that strong fundamentals matter more than scouting the competition.

A decade of flat new home sales tells me this isn't cyclical, it's structural. Construction costs, labor shortages, and a market only cash buyers can access. When price-insensitive buyers are the last demand standing, the sector is broken.

A week away from the election, @DanProft things the Illinois GOP could learn from legendary coach John Wooden. Stop defining the party by our opponents. Time to start developing talent and executing well, trusting that strong fundamentals matter more than scouting the competition.

From rejecting conservative reform to struggling to mobilize voters, the Illinois GOP is a disaster.

🔥🚨LATEST: A California fisherman says a great white shark bigger than his kayak swam right up to him and it's reportedly the same shark a paddleboarder had just warned him about. It happened about 1.5 miles off Half Moon Bay, California, where his kayak is TWELVE and a half feet long and he says the shark "dwarfed it." David Slavich: "There's this giant eyeball locking with my eyeballs. And it was one of the most surreal moments I think I've ever had in my life."

‘She’s About a Mover’ ~ Sir Douglas Quintet 1969

I recently visited a house in Miami owned by a Heat player. (My client was the prospective buyer). The house was the scene of a bankruptcy in action. The player was at the end of his career. Selling the house at a significant loss after just a few years of owning it. Important to note: Miami single family over $5M is one of the best performing segments of the real estate market here. He managed to lose money on a house in a market that shot up. Amazing. Easily over $5M of cars in the driveway (I am not exaggerating). And three rooms full of mostly sneakers. Thousands of pairs. It was mind boggling. The listing agent started to extoll the virtues of the driveway, saying how nicely cars fit. My buyer, who can buy the whole thing in cash, deadpans that he does not have a car. The contrast was rather poetic, in a tragic sort of way.

Doc Severinsen asked Johnny Carson on air if he was helping "Mrs. Carson" with the Thanksgiving turkey. There was no Mrs. Carson. Doc led the Tonight Show band for 25 years. Carson was married four times, and all of it played out in public. When the question landed, Carson didn't dodge it. He corrected his friend, said he'd forgotten about that, and turned the divorce into the joke. Oyster stuffing versus bread stuffing. He lost that argument, and she got a lot more than the stuffing. Doc fired back that after so many years he sometimes forgot which wife they were on for which Thanksgiving. The audience applauded. Only a friend of 25 years can ask that question on national TV. And only a man who has made peace with it can answer it like that. Watch the clip. A cruel question, or the warmest thing two friends can do on camera?
