I don't think Genji specified witches in his original comment.

1. I wanted Shana to win after she ran (or just dominated? - maybe someone else got one) the Shakespeare category with confidence near the beginning. Elsinore, Bosworth, Padua - I have a feeling those might have been triple stumpers with some recent trios. But all three today turned out to be strong players, so it…

The Church hierarchy did not really embrace the movie at all. The very old John Paul supposedly said nice things in a private interview, after which his spokesman furiously backtracked. The fact that Gibson belonged to a sect whose status within the Church was dubious at best was doubtless also a factor.

Also, isn't that already the plot of The Robe (or at least along the same lines)?

The Albigensian Crusade (and for that matter the regular Crusades) came and went before Aquinas was even born, so this sounds like oversimplification at best.

I agree with the reviewer in one respect - I remember the skinhead portions of the book as being very confusing for an American reader. I vaguely knew from TV or Time magazine what skinheads were, but the idea that a gang of them might be hanging out a few blocks down the street from a normal kid's house seemed very…

It bounces around so much that I didn't even remember that it aired at 7:00 for a time.

Half correct.

If a comedy is funny, the audience all laughs together and it becomes a communal experience. (Even if only a minority actually find the movie funny, the majority should be tolerant because laughter was the experience the movie wanted to induce.) To be loud and rude during a non-comedy is obnoxious.

The "Hey Paula" duet in Animal House was one of my favorite parts of that movie.

What a strange story. (Although I wonder if Spielberg's "And promiscuous. She came onto him." was meant to be sarcastic, as Kasdan's "And he was forty-two." clearly was. Only Lucas really seems gung-ho for the idea.)

I think it is a mistake to assume that every question of constitutional law has an objective right answer equivalent to a question of fact (and even more of a mistake for anyone, right or left, to assume that this always correlates with his/her own preferences).

At one time the Teen Tournament winner also did. I think they did respectably enough, so I don't know why (or exactly when) that was stopped.

You forgot the Big East doubleheader on Fox on Saturday - Providence vs. Georgetown at 12:00, Xavier vs. Butler at 2:30. (Both PC and Xavier fans will be disappointed that the Dayton-URI game was acknowledged and these were not.)

The densely populated Northeast (Northeast U.S., that is) has some of this attitude as well.

I have already seen it three times - that is 81 dresses total. (It sounds funnier with a pubescent speech impediment.)

This is the most recent tweet from Bernie Sanders - "We need trade policies that are designed for the American worker, not for the multinational corporations who are richer than ever before." It could easily have been said by Trump, except he would blame the Chinese government directly, not the the corporations.

I thought I was the only one who ever noticed that.

I think he is quoting what someone on Twitter (I forget who it was) said.

Some polls indicate a correlation with the kind of people who supported Ross Perot - people from the post-industrial Midwest who think that modern American life has passed them by. In some ways their motivations are actually not too different from the motivations of Sanders supporters, although they obviously reach…
