I love this picture because I can just imagine Nick sitting on the floor of Tom and Bill’s room at the Naval Academy just messing with his camera because it’s like 12-dark-thirty and they’ve gotten nowhere on this advanced thermodynamics assignment. Tom and Bill are laying on the floor with papers and notebooks and textbooks scattered all around them still hard at work on this stupid assignment that even Tom, the guy who’s been at the top of every class he’s ever taken, was struggling to understand. And Ron is laying upside down on Tom’s bed throwing a ball and catching it having given up a while ago with the promise that if Tom figured it out he would make sure that he ends up with an actually cool callsign.

She explored the Trump campaign’s confrontation at Arlington National Cemetery, where a campaign staffer shoved a cemetery employee who tried to stop a political video shoot, and put his history of derogatory comments about the military in context.

Iceman strongly believes that betting on stupid stuff like who can drink the most hot sauce is childish but Nick “Mother Goose” Bradshaw calls him a coward he’ll chug that entire bottle without breaking a sweat out of spite.
