I lucked out because I’m fifty with a full head of hair and a touch of gray (the sweet spot where I look old enough to know what I’m doing but young enough to still be able to do it). But I’ve already decided that since I wear my hair short anyway when it starts to go I’ll just shave it off.

“Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?”

Oh, he knows how jail works. It’s a good soundbite for his supporters and he knows he doesn’t have to follow through on it.

You didn't even mention Ginger Lynn Allen in a non-porn role.

Huh. Checking the website it turns out there are five Habit Burger locations within a few miles of where I live but I don't think I ever heard of them before.

So as the episode ends, a U.S. sub has just blown up a Chinese tanker. World War III is about to begin, and there's only one person who can possibly stop it.

Nope. My phones (personal and work) stay in another room unless I'm expecting a call or message during the night. The clock radio I've had for years works just fine when I need an alarm. I know I risk missing notification of a middle of the night emergency but c'est la vie.
