Klaatu! Verata! Necktie… Nectar… Nickel…
Well, it looks as if I can put a stop to my pursuit of a Grand Army of the Undead, as I finally brought Oracle to heel this morning. And all it took was 20 hours of research on Google,…
Tone-Deaf Back At The Old H.Q.
I routinely support our military in its endeavors, but I, too, must protest at their fleecing of Michael Yon. Memo to the Army: Yon was one of the best war correspondents of the past 4 years and brought a lot…
