Greg Wier’s Taking Charge! Faced with the question of how to spread the word about a largescale sexual abuse lawsuit that’s currently being litigated in Michigan, Greg Wier said, “I’ll broadcast the victim’s stories myself!” Dozens of episodes later, the “More Than Just Luck Podcast" continues to seek answers and expose injustices multiple times a week, and we have no plans of stopping. 🕊 Trauma should have no expiration date. ✍ Sign the petition and help us demand change: c.org/xc6Rkk96rG #MoreThanJustLuck #GregWier #TraumaSurvivor #TrueStory #TroubledTeenIndustry #HealingJourney #MentalHealth #TrueCrime #fyp #janedoe #Cornell #InstitutionalAbuse

Red Wings draft 6-1 center Marco Kasper from Austria. A lot of mock drafts pegged him to the Wings. But again, Yzerman takes a player not rated quite as highly by the experts. He's never afraid to trust himself and his scouts.

It's furlough week here at the Wojo Estate, and after 20 years, I'm finally cleaning out my drawers. (Shaddup). It's unclear why I have receipts from random restaurants in random cities dating to 2002. Please tell me I'm not the only one going through this embarrassing ordeal.
