Happy National Horse Day!

Car engines got measured in horsepower back when comparing your vehicle to actual horses made sense, but now a Toyota Camry has 200 horsepower and I refuse to picture 200 horses under the hood. That's not a car anymore, that's a stampede with air conditioning and Bluetooth.
Daily Trivia
Who played Dick Van Dyke's wife on his self-titled sitcom?

"The Dick Van Dyke Show" was one of the smartest sitcoms of the 1960s, following comedy writer Rob Petrie through his work life and home life. Dick Van Dyke could trip over an ottoman and make it look like ballet, but the show needed more than just his physical comedy to work. Rob needed a wife who could hold her own, someone with comedic timing sharp enough to match his pratfalls. Who played Laura Petrie on "The Dick Van Dyke Show"?

Retro Rewind: On This Day

40 years ago TODAY, we all filed into a creepy New England mansion to find out who did it, with what, and in which room when “Clue” hit theaters in 1985!
The movie brought the board game to life with Tim Curry’s breakneck butler, Madeline Kahn, Christopher Lloyd, Michael McKean, Eileen Brennan, Martin Mull, and Lesley Ann Warren all racing through secret passages, accusations, and bodies hitting the floor. Based on the Hasbro game and originally released with three different endings that theaters rotated, it barely made its budget back at the box office but slowly turned into a full-on cult classic on VHS and cable, with fans still arguing over which ending is the “real” one. Do you remember which guest first entered the mansion?

What level sends the dot-munching hero into total electronic chaos?
