Well, Jindal thinks this portrait of him is accurate.

Probably the Dickens fair.

As I was reading it, I realized I had read it somewhere else, then found it today on xojane.

That mother was completely clueless.

My grandmother lived on the South Side of Chicago the last couple years of Prohibition.

There’s a new Austen based MMORPG called Ever, Jane. It’s in beta. For reals.
