This book is why I am a historian (possibly). Printed in 1989, it is full of absolute bollocks. I love it

Some incredibly good news:

One year ago this week, The Onion returned to print.

In that one year, we’ve grown to the 13th largest print newspaper in the United States, just ahead of the Boston Globe, and growing fast.

In short, it’s working.

So… thank you. Thank you for helping save this thing.

The Army announced that it is consolidating or closing many of its 41 active-duty museums weeks ago.

Many questions linger as to why the Lewis Army Museum at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash., has been pegged for closure — and U.S. Sen. Patty Murray is demanding answers.
