Not sure on the timeline with variolation there. For a start, Mather didn’t ignore Onesimus - he researched the matter, consulted with other slaves, read articles on the topic, was convinced, and then led the drive to combat the 1721 smallpox epidemic with variolation - his campaign, and the provable results that came…

Wait, is there an age that you are supposed to start splitting bags of coke with kids?
They had to ban ‘ elbow ‘ too....’...... as they couldnt tell their arse from their elbow.

West Virginia as in the state that split off Virginia because they didn’t want to leave the Union and join the confederacy West Virginia? I’m Australian and even I know that.
I think it’d be fun if they went with completely different voices that sound nothing like the originals. Don’t just give us a black voice actor doing an impression of Harry Shearer doing an impression of Cosby. Give JB Smoove the role and let him use his normal voice.

...good lord. If he throws any worse than that, John Elway is going to try to make him a QB this fall.
Oh, I know. Somebody really needs to make a Broadway musical set to the music of Rush. Like Mama Mia, only not awful.
Obligatory. No buzzing the tower.
My father was in the flight training class before Boyington at Pensacola. I asked my dad what he thought of Boyington and he said he was a “conceited son of a bitch”. In all fairness I suspect that same phrase could have been used to describe my father at the time...
