A long time ago when I worked a lot of concerts it was typical to see facility and artist management together. in room counting cash. I think this was because at the time most ticket sakes were cash. Though in my experience this always happened during the show, not before. I remember Bill Cosby getting $80k per show and doing two a day.

Not dismissing the press simply for being the press is not the same as giving them a pass. Giving them a pass would to take everything as true because they are the press. But a big difference between the press an politicians is the press cites their sources and fact checks. Maybe web blogs don't, but they are not really the press. News channels that just have pundits giving their opinions is not factual.

People seem to have forgotten what the press actually is since Trump took office. And Trump's motive is to mislead people into thinking the press is no different than him or politicians who just say whatever they want.

Mine went up $400. The reason was that the previous owner was old enough to be exempt from some of the taxes. When the taxes went back up (I am not old enough to be exempt), the mortgage company did not increase the amount in escrow. So they had to jack it up to pay for the taxes they forgot to pay. Next month it should go down to what I was originally supposed to pay.

Just mentioning this in case yours is a similar reason.

Remember when he claimed how much cheaper he could dig tunnels than cities? But he left out the part where he was comparing tunnels with fast food restaurants to plain tunnels and that when you properly compared them he spent more money than every one else.
