Mike Pence needs to avoid dangerous objects. This includes women apparently.

I don't know if I could pick a favorite episode of The Twilight Zone. So many great episodes, guest stars and lessons from Rod Serling and the other writers. No matter my mood however, I always get a big kick out of Andy Devine in "Hocus-Pocus and Frisby."

I only recognized Burnside, for obvious reasons, and partly because I briefly worked in Burnside, KY. The town was named for Burnside (as was "sideburns") after his command camped there for a time during the Civil War. I was curious about the rest and thought I'd share.

Matthew Gravill said, "I'm not a white supremacist... I'm an ethnocentrist."

Or "I'm not a bigot; I'm a racist."

These dopes are in dire need of a... hobby.

Fog of War" refers to the incalculable complexities of combat—it is not unexplored and beclouded areas of a map; that is just fog or clouds.

"Fog of War" could instead be a mechanic representing the limitless events possible in warfare.

Great game; very faithful and nostalgic except:

No matter how you try to rewrite it, it is Rosalind Franklin's diligent work that led to the iconic Photo 51 that history will deservedly remember as the key to discovering the structure of DNA, and that she was robbed of the credit at the time because of bigotry.

James Watson had two reasons to steal Rosalind Franklin's work. She was Jewish, but most damming of all; she was a woman.

"...the fact, which the testimony endeavours to establish, partakes of the extraordinary and the marvellous; in that case, the evidence, resulting from the testimony, admits of a diminution, greater or less, in proportion as the fact is more or less unusual."

Not much better Trek than Jeri Ryan portraying Seven of Nine portraying Robert Picardo portraying The Doctor... and Robert Picardo portraying the Doctor portraying Jeri Ryan portraying Seven of Nine.

Not much better TV, really.
