"Where is everyone?" "You had 'everyone' killed." "Stalin family reunion"

Sir Winston Churchill

'I think I'll stay in and try to catch up on my reading.'

Harry S. Truman

"I'm a common dolphin, I swim the west coast of Scotland foraging for fish and squid."

I hope that "golden showers" dossier about Trump is true. That'd be awesome. How so, little buddy? Well, I was always a big fan of the cold war. I loved "Red Dawn" and "War Games" and "James Bond" and all those really cool cold war movies. If it's true that our new president is actually being blackmailed by the Russians, we might finally have a real "Manchurian Candidate." I've calculated that the number of "Twilight Zone" episodes that might still come true has just grown by half a dozen. I hop

'Walter isn't truly happy unless he's bombing some country.'

Russian Spy Debriefing

"What do you suppose Ken Burns will have to say about all this in 30 years?"

"You can stop humming 'Private Eyes' by Hall & Oates now!"

I think the best thing about this whole Russia stuff is the movies. Interesting hypothesis. Think about it: the best action movies we ever had were the cold war ones, like "Wargames," "The Manchurian Candidate," "The Day After," etc

Old cold warriors home: 'By god, I'll tell you who was soft on communism. . .'

"Italian Prisoners of War" - F.S.Lowry

Welcome to the "Ask Sadie" radio hour. You're on, Cleveland. What's YOUR problem?! My deadbeat brother-in-law won't leave. What do I do? For six months, he's been sleeping on my couch, watching my tv, and drinking my Dr. Pepper. Excellent question. It reminds me of the time Stalin liberated Eastern Europe and then didn't leave for 44 years. You're going to need a massive arms race, a containment strategy, and Sylvester Stallone. Now he's using my toothbrush.
