The Many Loves of Donald Trump
First Donald swooned over Kim Jung Un. He said he was in love. Then he was hubba hubba over Hungary’s Viktor Orban and his iron fist. And we all know Trump gets weak at the knees at the mere mention

I Found Out I Can Do Something

The New York World’s Fair in 1964/1965 attracted a boatload of luminaries, but none more incredible than Fred Flintstone. Traveling all the way from prehistoric Bedrock, Fred and Wilma, Barney and Betty couldn’t wait to see that showcase of mid-20th-century
