Has Rick ever owned a bear?

his last film, London Has Fallen

Give a beach ball to a cow some time and you’ll understand the difference. They’ve got no control, no flair, and their balance is for shit. Seals, on the other hand...

throughout his hour-long interview, this bracingly cantankerous, late-career Dave pops up to gibe his illustrious guest along with himself, often simultaneously. After Obama confesses to some all-thumbs Ikea assembly when dropping daughter Malia off at Harvard, Letterman responds to Obama mocking him for using the

That’s nobody’s business but the Turks.

Do you regret working with Woody Allen on [insert film here, real or just made up to confuse them]?

When John Williams sat down to compose ... The Last Jedi, Williams ... muddled ... notes, to ... tip them off that “this is not ... the way ....”

Millie Bobby Brown’s acting success is especially impressive when you consider how she overcame the expectations raised by her name that she’d grow up to assassinate a president or celebrity.

From the White House, to a news website, to a couch in his mom’s basement, and all in less than a year. If Bannon keeps this up, he could be ranting at passing cars in an underpass by spring.

That’s been obvious ever since they gave post-scandal Troy McClure that Lifetime Achievement award.
