I think Clemson — which beat my Buckeyes even worse than I expected — has a really good shot at beating Alabama and winning the whole thing. I won my bowl-picking competition with my friend. And Tracy Claeys got fired yesterday.

It's an honor, sir or madam. Is there something like a Bat Signal that alerts you whenever you're needed?

So you're saying . . . it can be two things?

From that picture, I can't tell if it's supposed to be a hard taco or a soft taco. That might be the first red flag right there.

A tip of the cap to the protestors from the NAACP — including national president Cornell William Brooks — for staging a sit-in at Jeff Sessions' office in Mobile and peacefully demanding that he withdraw from consideration to be Attorney General. They were arrested, as they knew they would be, but did it anyway,…

Yes. Overlooked in this kerfuffle is that Trump thinks such an office is "unfair".

Liz Lemon also said — in an episode of 30 Rock that aired in 2009 — "Our topical cold open is about Omarosa borrowing Bjork's swan dress."

British singer? Why is he outsourcing the job?

Actually, per Donald's instructions, they're sending a request for the lyrics by courier to the local library.

My family rarely flew when we went on trips, so we took lots of long trips in the car. Most of the time, my parents played what they wanted to listen to — either music from Indian movies, or Carnatic music. (Every once in a while, they would let my sister and me listen to the Star Wars audio cassette. Not the…

I agree with you that this needs to be airtight, and I assume the final classified report will have much more damning evidence. But my understanding is that even the preliminary public report issued Thursday led Vermont to conclude that Russian malware — associated with the hacking, and identified in the report — was…

Ah, Christy Turlington. I think people in fashion have said she has the most perfect face they've ever seen. I, for one, will not argue with them. (The rest of her is gorgeous, too.) And she does a lot of charity work all over the world for women and mothers — much of it to prevent deaths during childbirth. Ed Burns…

Somehow, the guy who doesn't use a computer thinks we should trust him about the Russian hacking, instead of the nation's entire intelligence establishment.

A friend of mine asked me this way back during the primaries, when it was apparent that Trump was a threat — perhaps even the favorite at that point — to win the Republican nomination: Would I be willing to let Cruz win the election right then and there, so long as it prevented Trump from becoming President? As much…

It's not Jan. 20 yet. And this is America. Great things can happen here. We've got lax gun laws and lots of mentally ill people we don't take care of.

Oh. I don't control what songs come next. That's what makes the shuffle the shuffle.

The Beatles Anthology. There was a TV series back in 1995, and three double-albums released in '95 and '96, with demos, outtakes, live versions, etc.

The Who, "The Seeker"
Aretha Franklin, "Good Times"
Social Distortion, "Machine Gun Blues"
Otis Redding, "Nobody's Fault But Mine"
Ramones, "Blitzkrieg Bop"
Johnny Cash, "It Ain't Me Babe" (live)
The Beatles, "I Feel Fine" (Anthology 2 live version)
Eminem, "Lose Yourself"
The Beatles, "Yesterday" (Anthology 2 version)
Tesla,…

He's clearly a guy who only pays attention to the pictures. Preferably pictures of himself. Or attractive women.
