As disappointed as the Schloss-Blog is, like so many others, that Fox News' most-boisterous and overrated on-air personalities won't have to testify in person, let alone apologize publicly, it was still nice to know that Fox had to write a check for $787.5 million to Dominion to avoid having to do all that.
We'll see if that keeps them from doing more of that going forward to other fine, upstanding businesses. And they still have the Smartmatic case for $2.7 billion staring them in the face, and Smartmatic says this will go the distance.
Can't wait.

Want to get gun-loving Republicans to vote in favor of more restrictive legislation when it comes to gun-toting?
Greg Moore, in a USA Today column, contends that releasing the crime-scene photos of the victims killed with AR-15s will sway a good number of people.
And he's right.
I can feel my stomach churning already at the sight of 9-year olds, or what's left of them, with AR-15 bullet holes in them.
Moore literally contends that we should show photos from the carnage, like what just happened in Louisville and in Nashville.
It would be so sickening. But it would work.

Ninety-three (93) runs.
In one softball game.
But that's what happened when South Mountain played Metro Tech in Phoenix.
Yes, the game ended by slaughter rule (it was 54-39 after 6 innings), but not before Metro Tech's four pitchers walked 44 South Mountain players. South Mountain's sole pitcher, in her masterpiece, only walked nine.
The game went on so long that the scoreboard lights supposedly went out automatically beyond "curfew" and had to be rekindled each time.
Kinda' makes you want to be a softball mom or dad, huh?

Quick takes:
- Damar Hamlin is back. The Buffalo Bills safety, who suffered a heart attack in the Cincinnati game, has been cleared for full-contact participation. God love him!
- What's the most-populous country in the world? China, for now, India soon. Before the end of the year, India is projected to pass China in population. Combined with the United States, the three countries will account for nearly half the world's population.
- What does $787.5 million buy you? No admission of guilt.
- What are the four traits you have that can blunt AI? Fast Company says it's empathy, self-awareness, curiosity and humility. You mean AI can't copy that? Hmm...
- Space X's rocket blew up. But the mission was successful. Huh?
- My Pillow's Mike Lindell has been ordered to pay $5 million to Robert Zeidman, a software developer who proved that Lindell's data does not show that the 2020 election was rigged. Lindell is saying that Zeidman's analysis was rigged. Zeidman, by the way, voted for Trump. He just wanted the $5 million.
- Blue Jays' pitcher Anthony Bass was lit up on Twitter after contending a flight attendant should not have forced his 22 weeks-pregnant wife to clean up after their kid on a flight where the kid schmeared popcorn all over. What do you think?
