A similar argument (so incompetent he helped save the Union!) can be made for Hood. At the Battle of Franklin, the brash and bold Hood ordered a frontal assaults on Union breastworks; James M. McPherson wrote, “Having proved even to Hood’s satisfaction that they could assault breastworks, the Army of Tennessee had

McLendon-Covey will play brilliant A.I.M. scientist Monica Rappaccini, Bennet will play tech company executive Austin Van Der Sleet (he’s trying to take over A.I.M. from M.O.D.O.K.), Daly will play the Super Adaptoid (hey, an actual guy from the comics!)

It turns out the final DD count was Brad 10 (four correct, six incorrect), Ken 8 (seven correct, one incorrect), and James 6 (five correct, one correct), but it certainly felt a lot more lopsided for Brad. Probably because he hit four of six on the first day, or maybe because he missed as many as James hit.

Ken was the one who I would have bet against most. He’d never beaten Brad, and James’s style seems designed to kick holes in Ken’s cautious gameplay. But it turned out James’s style pushed Ken into a more daring strategy — one Ken has said in the past is probably better than his caution — and ... well. It took only

not unlike Debratha, the first time she saw Bradley the Helpful Firefighter limpid and nude in the tumescent light of dawn

That could be a problem. When breaking Senate ties with his vote, Vice President Incitatus would be able to vote “neigh” only, no matter the issue.

It’s about as significant as Wolverine #1000, Deadpool #1000, and Spectacular Spider-Man #1000. Well, slightly more significant, I suppose, but it makes as much sense as those three.

You’re giving them at least twice as much credit as they deserve.

In the original series, Lucky Yates was one of the regulars, filling various roles. Will he be back, and if so, will the show make any references to his subsequent role as Algernop Krieger on Archer?

The comparison between Renko and Gunther is an apt one; I’ve read all the Renko novels, but it didn’t occur to me. Gunther — in March Violets, at least — seems more willing to bend in some ways than Renko. I might be misremembering, though.

+1 horn.

I’m reading the second book in Steph Cha’s Juniper Song series, with the third book of the trilogy to follow. Liking it so far, but I’m wary of the “Hollywood scandal” direction Beware Beware is taking.

I’ve never found Wolfe’s works to be to my liking, unfortunately. What do you think changed between your first reading of the first Long Sun book and now?

Well, Linda McMahon and Donald Trump have something in common besides their money: They’ve both been victims of the Stone Cold Stunner.

The intersection between BBC podcasts and Jeopardy! is the Radio 4 Quiz, which rotates between three competitions: Brain of Britain (general knowledge), Counterpoint (music), and the Round Britain Quiz (puzzle / allusions). Right now only the Round Britain Quiz is available; for an example of the type of questions

When I first tried out for the college tournament 2+ decades ago, I made it to the mock game / interview. I wasn’t sure how I did, but I knew that even though I did better than some people in my session — the college tournament in those days had four sessions each at four different sites — one guy there did better

To be clear, Kentucky is two states and a solid 1,000 miles away from the Mexico border.

I think this article has engendered more enthusiasm than the new MacGyver — which I will point out is still on the air, in its third season — has. I mean, The Simpsons, even in their most desperate levels, hasn’t even referenced the new MacGyver for a cheap / meta Patty and Selma joke. (If they have, I’ve forgotten

The concept is more than a little reminiscent of the ‘70s Marvel comic Skull the Slayer, in which a Vietnam vet disappears into the Bermuda triangle on a plane with a few others; he gets a magic belt, fights dinosaurs and aliens and ancient Egyptians and all sorts of crap, and it all adds up to nothing. There’s also a

And what about Roy Green, who was also a defensive back?
