On my ship the midnight to four watch rotation was called the midwatch, and was the most desirable rotation. The watches were four hour shifts unless a personnel shortage mandated six on six off. Midwatches got to sleep till noon and had to fake being busy working for just the afternoon.

One of my shipmates got married and divorced over the course of one three week deployment.

Someone get Anna some product and a blow dryer...stat!

I’m guessing Megyn has Roger Ailes’s written authorization to deviate from the standard Fox News cocktail dress for this interview. But just this once.

Does MLB archive video of games these days? Otherwise crappy cellphone video is going to be his only record of this big moment. I’m acquainted with a former MLB pitcher from the eighties who can’t find any video record of his pro ball career.

North Korea has already received inquiries about their crowd rental services.

Just add “Christian” to the mix and you’ll have the perfect Fox News victim.

It's what our Founding Mothers intended.

Sadly no one ever gave us a copy of that handbook.

A kind of related story: On my ship it was customary to begin ship wide announcements on the 1MC with the word "now"; for example "Now lunch is being served on the mess deck." Similarly, when communicating advisory information over the radio we began with "Be advised..."

I'm not sure how common it is but I know it does happen. Futurama's Katey Sagal lost her father just this way.

Things have really changed from when I was in the Coast Guard in the late 70's. Back then drug interdiction was a gentleman's game, with only the boarding officer issued an unloaded sidearm and one magazine that was to be kept in his belt unless needed.

It's a mook with an attitude.

That picture fails to capture the proper enthusiasm.
