Only if it's Little Caesar's. But they do use real tomato sauce.

I can't help but notice that the room looks to be decorated in the "casino tacky" style so favored by Felon 47.

What I find surprising is that this comes as a surprise.

Oh, shoot! Is this a math test? Is it true / false? If there are five more, then there were tomatoes in the house prior to the addition; therefore, pre-addition tomatoes is/are an unknown. That's X, right? Y is this so early in the morning? A person could get so confused. B nice. What's the answer?

one of my favorite quotes.

My daughter and her husband are MLB fans. Saturday marks a significant day when Jen Pawol steps onto the field to umpire the Marlins and the Braves. She's worked tirelessly with the minor league and also at spring training. She should be invisible on the field. I celebrate her big league debut!

I just don't have the bandwidth right now to think about one television has-been fawning over another television has-been. But hey, the right has to have "a Superman, even if he's grizzled," who ain't woke, right? Because the new "Superman" is.

Uh, they're using the same excuse as the Smithsonian did when they removed the reference to Trump's two impeachments: as part of a content review, it got in the way, it was temporary, and it wasn't up to the standards of the rest. Yeah, sounds about right for the current administration.

I'm surprised as well. Looks like he really wants a "natural" life, with rotten teeth and dead by 30.

I sometimes feel like a banana peel, right after the pratfall.

If you add just one little verb, it's so easy to see that "nobody is better than I <<am>>. On the other hand, "If somebody is going to get a flaming hot Cheetos bag, who better than me any day." And then there's always "Hello! It's me!" But if you want true confusion, try "It was he who stabbed me."

I attended elementary school in Middletown, which was at the time adjacent to Olmstead Air Force Base, southeast of Harrisburg. The district is now called Middletown Area School District, but I seem to recall Dauphin County. We're talking 60+ years ago.

I spent my elementary years in the Pennsylvania system. Gettysburg was a field trip. No pretty stories or lies about slavery. I heard the lies when I was brought south after sixth grade. I recognized them for what they were, even as a child. It's easier when you have heard sense and nonsense both.

Were we really that stupid?

From WWII rose consumerism and the American dream, but also more wars (so-called conflicts), racial integration resistance, political assassinations, a disgraced president, the rise of "Christian schools," topped off by a celebrity election, Reagan / Republican. Don't forget how close bad is.

I'm with you all the way.

As a staunch republican conservative once told me, "You would not believe the lowlifes that God has used for good."
Yeah, you'll have to let me know what your definition of "good" is, because I don't see "good," and I don't see "God."

The psychopath's white sycophants' ballroom.

Soon to be renamed the Trumpian.

When this period of American history has resolved into sanity, there will be college courses detailing the massive erasures that were accepted and endorsed during these dark days. They can spackle over all they wish to hide, but one day soon the walls will come down and the light will shine again.

Thanks for inducing a desire to learn more. I spent about 20 minutes reading up on elephants, both African and Asian. Keeping them in the wild and protected, as opposed to zoos, is better simply because they only live half as long in captivity. The article mentioned stress. Loss of Social dynamics?

I guess that applies to "Deadpool" too, but I really have to stretch my limits. I will still take Gene Barry over Tom Cruise.

One day people will look back at Orson Wells and call him a prophet. I read somewhere that there are really only a small number of story themes but a million ways to expound on them. It's hard to be novel. Oh! Wouldn't it be contradictory to call a novel novel? Sorry, my synapses are misfiring.

They have to meet metrics, yes, and also to say that they're deporting criminals. The target was detained at customs. If you don't have two U.S. citizen parents at birth and you have any unsealed criminal verdicts in your history, you too might be targeted for deportation during a U.S. reentry.

Interesting how they put a cushion under Brando's knee. Comfort? Or optics?

Trump's activity reminds me so much of school age mean girl vibes.

While watching episode 6 of season 2, I had the distinct pleasure of catching a historic prop. Uhura asked for a glass of Saurian brandy, and the bartender brought out a flagon identical to a prop used by Scotty(?) on TOS. It's personal to me because my brother had one just like it. Ah, memories.

Now the fake news is called FOXNEWS, and the ones who believe them are called MAGAts.

In the grand scheme of things, it doesn't really matter, but like the starfish that the little girl threw back into the outgoing tide, "Daddy, it makes all the difference to this one."

Good for you because you wanted to, and did.
