Having rented minivans to take the family on multiple vacations and being astonished at the amount of cargo they can inhale, how easy they are to drive and the mileage they get, I look forward to getting rid of my Ford Edge this summer and getting a minivan.

It’s a good idea — worked for Asimov and the Mule in the Foundation Trilogy — but, if true, Lucas’ screenwriting skills weren’t up to the task, or were too focused on “I know! He’ll step in poop here! The kids will love it!”

With the way ratings and attendance has been tumbling, France is due to make many more bad decisions in the near future.

I’m sure the owners of the Red Wings and Blue Jackets visited both of these guys today to personally thank them for defending the honor of their respective teams.

Gary Bettman has never left the payroll of the NBA, and he’s been worth every penny they’ve paid him.

And Season Ticket invoices are due in just one week!

I will fight for you, Papa John!!

Just think of all those Dr. Ben Carson books his campaign can buy now.

I look forward to a season with him and a companion who also doesn’t have to be The Most Specialist Girl In All The Universe.

Really late to this but I don’t understand why it’s important for us to see them making the proton packs and the traps.

I found my old, dog-eared novelization of the movie — written purportedly by George Lucas — last time I was at my parents house.

The title implies that this is the quiet, contemplative character piece where Cloverfield, after not being able to succeed in the Big City, is forced to move home into its parents’ basement and wait tables while working on a screenplay.

“I said put on the fahckin’ yellow cape, Damo...I mean Robin!”

No, it’s cool. I’ve seen a shooting script. All the stuff between Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and Doomsday is over in Act I, and the rest of the movie is everyone lining up and kicking Jesse Eisenberg in the jubblies over and over again.

He brought all the enthusiasm to his campaign as a sullen 15-year-old sloppily mowing the grass because it came up when he spun the chore wheel...which is most likely how the campaign started in Barbara’s kitchen.

Gary Bettman has never left the payroll of the NBA and has done Stern and Silver’s bidding brilliantly.

If you’re taking requests, may I please suggest the grain-alcohol-and-malaria fever dream that is “Lazy Town?”

A co-worker of mine is Brazilian. When I asked him if he was going to attend the games he laughed long and loud.

I’d want to break Connie Mack’s lifetime managerial losses record of 3,948. If you did ‘em all at once that’s more than 24 seasons without winning a single game.
