“Hagueseth” like he should be tried there. Good nickname!

Yes, great dissertation idea. The Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History has a large collection (20 archival boxes) of “product cookbooks” ripe for research.

I’m delighted to see you’re including my local (free!) newspaper, The Falls Church News Press, which I have been reading for decades. It’s a great resource for the community.

Yes, especially since Johnson’s usual response to reporters’ questions over the past few months has been, “I haven’t seen it; I haven’t heard about it; I’m not up on that issue.”

I love the convoluted histories of memes; reminds me of how traditional stories by bards etc. vary by the teller sometimes. Or the game of “telephone” where messages get garbled as they pass from one speaker to the next. But they’re close enough that some folks will say, “yeah that thing!”

I thought this was a painting rather than a photo. So beautiful!

Yes, I recently saw the 2025 reissue of 1950s Sunset Boulevard in a theater and it was great. I wish more “Golden Age of Hollywood” films were replayed in local theaters.

Applications close on December 10th, 2025.

Please share widely, and good luck to all applicants!

I hope you #FoundThatLizard and good luck!

Yes, that seems to be the same mindset that the 8 defecting Democratic senators have. I think many of are still outraged by the corruption & lawlessness & Dems have to address that firmly.

I’ve stayed there. I love the mid-century modern vibe and the rooftop garden is amazing.
