No, she isn't. There's a character named Amy Ryan.

And Kierkegaard!

No, those are Presbyterians, and they're called "wee cuppies."

Liturgical dance.

I thought that was Ashcroft. Or maybe I'm mixing it up with his famously stupid FBI investigation, trying to find hookers in New Orleans. I remember Molly Ivins writing about it.

You know who's really good on that history? Fred Clark at Slacktivist. He's written a lot about how abortion came to be Job 1 for evangelicals.

No, the Greaseman. He came in after Stern left for New York.

There was a morning DJ at DC-101 in the early ’80s who used to bitch about doing personal appearances in the burbs, because if the big one came, he didn't want to survive.

Yeah, I'm older than y'all (grew up in the ’70s), and we never bothered. I graduated HS in 1980 and spent the Reagan years expecting to die at any moment.

Sorry to disappoint, but the Secret Service put the kibosh on that idea.

How is making a crappy movie "undermining civil society"?

I think it's that the attack occurred on the holiest day on the Christian calendar.

The song is weak. Phrasing and scansion are weird. It's…not good.

Back in the ’80s, two music journalists, Bob Oermann and John Lomax III wrote a book about the Music City where they called it "the Mayo Clinic for pop stars past their prime."

You can't have a legitimate debate with a fucking liar, and that's what Wakefield is. He falsified studies in hopes of future financial gains. His paper was published in the UK's most prestigious medical journal, which suffered a lot of embarrassment when the truth came out and they had to rescind the publication.

Language is fascinating, innit? My grandma was from Philly and she said cuauu-ffee, too!

Thing is, Trump is pals with the publisher of the Enquirer. So I'd say take it with a whole salt lick.

And they're building a new stadium right now.

Nope. There was even a contest for pastors to submit their sermons for "Narnia Sunday" where they worked it into their sermons as a subtle sales pitch to their flocks. I remember writing about it at a lefty Christian site.

That kind of parachuting in to a community is really disrespectful. It's the same deal as mission trips, where kids fly to some poor country and slap together a schoolhouse and leave a week later with lots of FB albums of themselves surrounded by smiling brown children.
