“Let’s see, how many do we want for the table? Three? Three.

We’ll have some spring rolls, how about an order of the potstickers, and also a land war in South America.

Not at a hotel, but I was present when a job candidate on a campus visit get asked by a full prof on the search committee “So…what church will you be attending if you get this position?”

What are the odds that a woman searching for a lover who drives around Hyannis with a severed whale head on the roof of his car would find a man with a passion for exactly that.

Truly a love story for the ages.

Also, I'm going to guess there's already studies on this, probably in JCMC or similar.

If the other option is "DVD with your name on it appears at the CNN mailroom," even arrogant shitheads like Larry Summers will bend the knee.

Also, it's not that Trump appeared in exactly 1000 documents.

1000 is the max the search function will return.
