A local bar was so sure that its bartender was the strongest man around that they offered a standing $1,000 bet.
The bartender would squeeze a lemon until all the juice ran into a glass, and hand the lemon to a patron.
Anyone who could squeeze one more drop of juice out would win the money.
Many people had tried over time (weightlifters, longshoremen, etc.) but nobody could do it.
One day a scrawny little man came in, wearing thick glasses and a cheap suit, and said in a tiny, squeaky voice, "I'd like to try the bet."
After the laughter had died down, the bartender said okay, grabbed a lemon, and squeezed away.
Then he handed the wrinkled remains of the rind to the little man.
But the crowd's laughter turned to total silence as the man clenched his fist around the lemon and six drops fell into the glass.
As the crowd cheered, the bartender paid the $1,000, and asked the little man, "What do you do for a living? Are you a lumberjack, a weightlifter, or what?"
The man replied, "I work for the IRS."

5 days.

ALT Graphic that says there are 5 days until 2023 Opening Day. The background is white with grey gradient text that reads "5". Within the number is text that reads "DAYS UNTIL" and the 2023 Major League Baseball Opening Day logo beneath it, with Chevy as the sponsor. In the middle is a cutout of Bryson Stott in the red pinstripes uniform jumping and throwing a ball.

“The country is on the whole prosperous at the present time. There is a substantial agreement that it can go on in that condition if we will be content and not overreach ourselves and try each one of us to get more than the other.”

One of my favorite parts of serving as State Representative is welcoming students to the Capitol, showing them the House floor, and telling them about how state government works. I had so much fun visiting with students from @MbgAreaSD Elmwood Academy at the Capitol this week!

Nicholas Winton helped 669 Jewish children escape the Nazis. His efforts went unrecognized for 50 years. Then in 1988, while sitting as a member of a TV audience, he suddenly found himself surrounded by the people he’d rescued

“I want to see the sacrifices of those who are charged with the expenditure of the money of the Government somewhat commensurate with the sacrifices that have to be made in the home by the taxpayers who furnish the money for the Government.”

A great day to be at the Lancaster County #MarchForLife, which is happening at the same time as the one in Washington DC! I will always stand with all those who defend the lives of the unborn and work to put the health and safety of women and children first.

“This general principle of passing one piece of legislation at a time is most salutary. It prevents crowding through measures that the majority do not favor and forces all bills to stand on their merits.”
