Listening to CBC radio this morning. They have entertainers showcase their own musical tastes and this cake from an opera singer. Can’t remember her name at the moment.

As a classical scholar, I can say this is ... old stuff.

I think a great name for a minor or peewee hockey team is the "Chilly Dogs"

A play on words of Chili Dogs and being cold (chilly)

Sometimes when my wife drives around and I'm in the passenger seat I'll see a sign for a place and make up shit about the place like "Vienna, home of the whopper"

One time we were passing, I want to say Fairfax Va, and I said something along the lines of "Welcome to Fairfax, home of the Chilly dogs. They were a peewee hockey team that made it all the way to nations last year but lost in the semifinals. They had an awesome parade in their honor down main street." My wife asked me "really?" thinking it was a great piece of local trivia. To which I replied "nah." Made the whole thing up on the fly but then it got me thinking of how cool of a concept it was to have a hockey team called the "Chilly Dogs" and how its a crime that its not really a thing. I did find a chili dogs team but its not punny enough.

I managed to salvage a 199x Dragon Ogre. I felt like I was restoring a valuable antique

For a second there I thought you found 199 Dragon Orges and it took me a minute to figure out it was just one from the '90s.  :biggriin:

That's a good channel. To me, channels made by historians are one of the best things, academic thought and analysis made mainstream.

Jackson Crawford's channel on Norse myth and literature is also very good. In depth, very thoughtful and no-nonsense, it will make you wiser.
