You would not believe the confidence with which I can now say “perhaps, but Norway’s got the hammer on this end.”
“What did you do this week?”

Context: this speech is from SIR THOMAS MORE, a history written, as near as scholars can tell, in the early 1600s by 6 or 7 people including Dekker, Heywood, Chettle, Shakespeare, and Munday.

It was never performed, because Jacobean England was a police state and it was banned by the censor.

It's like the World's Fairs and James Bonds ... there are Groundhogs blessed by official channels, and then there are the rogue ones. Believe who you will but we need more snow. The stuff we have is wearing out and getting yellow. Baby wants to ski more.

It's Groundhog Day. That means the forecast calls for weather predictions from animal prognosticators, including Ontario's Wiarton Willie, Nova Scotia's Shubenacadie Sam, New Brunswick's Lucy the Lobs...

ME: I knew Pagliacci was a stage name, but the joke didn't work unless I pretended it was his real name.

CHOTINER: So you misrepresented the doctor.

M: Well, I didn't know it would be popular. It was just for our followers.

C: Right. It's okay to lie when it's only close friends.

M: Hold on
DOCTOR: I told him he needed to get out to a show, that was how he would cure his depression.

CHOTINER: So you learned this technique in school?

DR: No, not— listen it was good advice. Pagliacci was in town.

C: Right. Is it standard to give advice before learning a patient’s name?

DR: Now look

Okay, people, time to boycott another NIMBY Disney movie.

Also, this is anti-beaver propaganda. If there’s a character in your cartoon that wants to build things, it should be a beaver

Staff at a Twin Cities yarn store put together a pattern for a red knit “Melt the ICE” hat inspired by the Norwegian resistance.

They thought they would attract 10 people to a weekly knit-along.

They’ve sold 70,000 copies, raising more than $250k for immigrant aid groups.
