I'm a Phillies fan who will not see another World Series any time soon. I'd rather seen Chicago get it than any other team than the Dodgers (as they just got Chooch) (even though my stepdad resented them leaving Brooklyn till the day he died). But I'll believe it when I see it.

And yet I still wouldn't put money on them winning the World Series.

Yeah, maybe something more like Lego Movie Emmet's hair only black.

If you're in the NYC-Philly corridor and love pinball, head for the Silverball Pinball Museum on the Asbury Park Boardwalk. It's not really a museum, though they put a lot of work into restoring old pinball machines, going all the way back to the 1930s—but really it's an arcade, where you pay maybe $20-$25 for the

Sure, Thunderdome sounds bad, but would you rather be that "Dot and the [Whatever Random Animal]" country?

My husband does woodworking as a hobby, and loves Shaker furniture, and he got REALLY excited by that episode.

Oh, definitely when Gildersleeve left for his spinoff.

Depends on the book—Dickens should still be read for pleasure, and Twain and Austen certainly are.

Oh, is that the British one? I just started watching that on Youtube because Katrina Longworth (of You Must Remember This) recommended it.

You have no idea how often my husband does the Mr Weir set-up/punchline.

I wish I could remember the exact wording of it, but I feel like there was some sort of callback to that episode earlier in the Nightly Show run, during one of the monologues.

You rang?

While the rest of us got dysentery.

As long as we don't have to use turnips—my great-grandfather didn't leave Ireland just to have me carve these damn turnips!

Hell, I'm married to those words.

That's a shame—I discovered a lot of amazing music on WPRB—the first time I found the station, they were playing The Modern Lovers' "Roadrunner", and it was a seminal moment for me.

I read "trust" as "thrust" and was momentarily impressed/repulsed.

I was a senior in high school when WDRE went off the air, and spent that day walking around school with my headphones on, listening to the last broadcast day, very bummed out. But at least there was/is still WPRB.
