Or is Doctor Who Donald Trump? I had a strange vision in the middle of (2005) S10E07 when I gleened what if the Doctor reincarnated as a version of Trump -- or if you could play, on some sardonic level, a farce with Trump as the Doctor. Sure we've all seen Mr. Bean as the Doctor, but Trump? Keeping both in character would not be too hard.  But it would be a great episode.

On the very last day of school, during the very last class, the teacher turned to the students. He looked at each of them slowly and started to speak. “Each of you knows what you have learned from me. All of you know what you have learned from your other teachers – or not, as the case may be.” The students chuckled nervously. It was funny, but in a way, it was not. He continued with a

And no, you can't drink the tap water. Then you hear the curfew is extended from 7 am to 6 pm! I'm going to have to start collecting rain water and boiling water from the tap -- and hope the electricity stays

Twenty minutes before midnight, Monday, with more than apprehension hanging in the air. Everyone knows that a hurricane is to hit us soon: will it be a bigger or smaller brother of Mitch -- that is the question on everyone's mind. I went to buy gas this afternoon at 3 pm.
