I always thought The Stand was Stephen King's last really great book. Maybe he can do a ripping good horror book set during the Civil War.

Speaking of one-hit wonders, has anyone ever gotten more mileage out of the resurrection of a one-hit wonder than Europe and Final Countdown?

I went to a chinese buffet for lunch and for once did not regret it one hour later.
If I had a dollar every time I was distracted, I wish I had some ice cream.

We're having Chinese in tonight. Coincidences? I don't think so.
Keeping it non-Stanford football related, we're hoping to score some of those miniature football helms shaped potstickers from Bo Jackson's commercial.

If it were a good restaurant to order from, they might have done you a favor since I would argue good pork fried rice is better than good pork lo mein.
Conclusion, not a good place to order from in any event.

Interesting. I know that when Carroll Shelby partnered with Unique Performance and started manufacturing Shelby Mutsangs again, they were using VINs that were originally granted decades before they had horrendous problems and ended up declaring bankruptcy. Urk.

If the Zika virus were able to cause microencephaly in infants at any time after infecting the mother, that clock would probably have moved 90 sec closer. Today I learned that fetuses are unlikely to be at risk for microencephaly if the pregnant woman had cleared the infection before the first trimester. (I'm late to this Zika fever, pun intended.) Whew.
