Today is Wednesday, Dec. 28, the 363rd day of 2016. There are three days left in the year.

Today's Highlight in History:


On this date:

... In 1832, John C. Calhoun became the first vice president of the United States to resign, stepping down because of differences with President Andrew Jackson.

Were there others or was he the first and last?

I consulted with the almighty Google and found out the following:

Agnew was the second Vice President in United States history to resign, the other being John C. Calhoun, and the only one to do so because of criminal charges.

Let's see if Pence is forced to make history.

Doesn't the warden have some chores for you to better occupy your time with?

She won't wake for a couple of hours yet.

Go wake her up and give her a "little" treat.......

I imagine he'd rather have the quiet. Lol

Indeed.

And just when did Tony's "rathers" start mattering around here?

Just practicin' some new years resolutions....it won't last.

TAMPA, Fla. - There is heavy police presence on Dale Mabry Highway between Spruce and Columbus Streets, closing that portion of the Highway to southbound traffic after a naked man reportedly ran through traffic and jumped on cars early Wednesday.
Multiple officers responded to subdue the man who was behaving irrationally. The man was seen banging his head against a vehicle in the roadway.

Tampa police have confirmed the man died after being transported to the hospital.

The identity of the man has not been released at this time.
