Oh, he's already been to hell, and frankly was not impressed.

Got all four! Then, again, they were history and geography questions. But it has been a while. Thank you for your recap articles, Jay S. Considerably Less Shitty New Year to you and all A. V. Clubbers!

At the time, "Slag piles and polluted rivers, Unrestricted strip mining" would have been more apt. It's gotten some what better, but mountaintop removal and fracing are fucking things up again.

And now seven oral surgeons are suffering from PTSD.

He's going to haunt the absolute fuck out of the Hammersmith Odeon.

"Representing Scumbag College, we have Mike, Neil, Vivian and Prik."

Poor old fucker! RIP. You'll be greatly missed.

"The Strom Thurmond Story!"

As a drunken slob, I endorse this.
