Yes, Ireland has Joyce. Which is unfortunate, because โUlyssesโ is on the short list of all-time, awful, overrated novels. Womp-womp
Italy has Dante Greece has Homer Germany has Goethe Rome had Virgil England has Shakespeare Who does Ireland have? Joyce? Pearse? Cรฉitinn? Ua Laoghaire? Yet to come?
I love Sydney Sweeney, but my favorite iteration of the new ad campaign isnโt her with the Mustang, but her with the German shepherd. The king of breeds. (Also, people should stop being so cynical about the ads. Theyโre using women & cars to sell to us again. Weโre so back)

Every moment has led me here.ย I am excited to announce my commitment to @NDFootball!
One familiar with mediaeval theological debates at, say, Paris or Oxford, knows that rigidity was hardly the order of the day, though it is *now* in a great many intellectual pursuits...
"Economics today resembles Catholic theology in medieval Europe: a rigid doctrine guarded by a modern priesthood who claim to possess the sole truth. Dissenters are shunned. ... Neoclassical economics has become the Aeroflot of ideas." Much truth in this.
TWENTY YEARS since the Bush Push?? How the hell old am I?!
Absolutely NO ONE is going to convince me that Notre Dame is not doing a retro green jersey when USC comes to town in October. Possibly the last game v USC for a long time, 'The Shirt' is deep green, 20 years since Bush Push... The HAVE to be doing a retro green jersey thisโฆ
The @RedSox are the first team in MLB history to: strike out 15+ times give up 5+ home runs face a 5+ run deficit ...and yet still win the game.

Hire them a seeing-eye dog and take them on a nice trip.
You won 50 million and your best friend eye surgery is 49 million, what will you do ?
From 30 years ago, yes. And one from 37 years ago as well.
How many of you still have friends from 30-40 years ago? I'll wait.

I just want my country back.
Considering that the British Navy operated on โrum, sodomy, and the lashโ โMaster & Commanderโ was a very heterosexual movie.
What was the last Heterosexual movie Hollywood made?
Just like we drew it up!
