I am often anti-religion on this forum, and for good reason...but if all Christians were like Jimmy and Roz, perhaps I wouldn't be so unapproving of religion.

Not sure what your tweet says, Dom, but Shane McGowan of the Pogues, writer of my favorite Christmas song.

He may have been the one who when asked if he would get his teeth done said, "Why? Some **** will knock them out anyway."

I will let you guess that four letter word.

The Pogues made some lasting and great songs. Always worth a listen and a toast of whiskey.

It is Anthony Bourdain's evisceration of Kissinger as he narrates his trip to Cambodia.

I used to take a lot of pride in being able to trace the lineage of all Lear's sitcoms and their spinoffs. All in the Family begat The Jeffersons begat Florence, All in the Family begat Maude begat Good Times, etc.
