After I had kids I realized I didn't like most Christmas specials. I didn't like Christmas movies (other than Elf). I loved the tree and the kids getting gifts, but it felt a little empty. What was so magical about Christmas?

So I went back to church.

My great-uncle was hair and makeup on the original run of Merrily and his partner took a big loan from Hal Prince to move from GM to Assoc Producer of this show.

Calling foul. No villages have their own high school. And there is no real rivalry outside of CCBL between like Marston Mills and Centerville. You went to the biggest HS in the area! Stolen valor!

I agree most of the stuff in your comments and MY ideas are probably garbage, too. But this will require something Extra.

I will say, respectfully, that we are going to require some creative ideas to get through "presidential immunity" and the pardon power. "It's just not done" isn't going to be good enough; need to set the precedent that this level of lawbreaking will not be tolerated or forgiven.

My little bro flew into Columbus for my bachelor party and when asked about the city responded, “It’s all Off-Cape to me.”

The actual party was in rural WV and upon seeing a shirtless toothless man eating a bowl of spaghetti in a fast food restaurant, described it as “wayyyy Off Cape.”

Ezra argued that Obama was more liberal than he was letting on (correct) and that the GOP would never work with Hillary and they would work with Obama. I argued vehemently against this and score that one for me!

Fun story for you and @whstancil.bsky.social. I watched the 2008 NH primary returns with Ezra and Y, (I think @brianbeutler.bsky.social, he'd have to confirm) and I was the only Hillary supporter. I told Ezra it was because of all his wonk writings on her health care plan being better!
