142nd Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show
Relegated this year to Fox Sports and practically forgotten by me in favor of Winter Olympic Curling (Canada, Switzerland, and Russia btw making it 6 of 12 Canadian Golds in the modern era) it barks and whines like an insistent canine that needs a walk so it can pee. Sorry dude. I’ve been sick too. …

Meet The In-Laws
You want to know Melania’s Maiden (hah) Name? Knavs. Her Father, Viktor, is a former member of the Yugoslav Communist Party (for which I don’t blame him, tough to get ahead in Yugoslavia without it and I don’t hate on Communists in general).

The XXIII Winter Olympics: Day 5
Let me explain what I mean by chromosome damaged. You see, us guys have an X and a Y, gals have two Xs. Now that Y, that’s just an X with the bottom leg broken off. Gals are tougher and smarter than we are. I don’t say this to impress the ladies, at 120+ I’d …

Ladies and Gentlemen: Kristen Bell
I don’t think it’s a secret that since I started following The Good Place I’ve really become impressed with Kristen Bell. No, I’m not going to deliver my monograph on Moral Philosphy and the different types of Cigar, Cigarette, and Pipe ash. Olympics, duh. But she does a lot of other stuff that shows up …

The Russian Connection: House Rules
Last week Donald Trump released the un-redacted Nunes Memo over the objections of the FBI and Department of Justice.
