Well, Sink My Car & Call Me ‘Ted’

by Smitty Emphasis and vomiting mine: The Naval Academy was ranked 13th in the list of best national liberal arts colleges, above its rival, the U.S. Military Academy, which was 24th. St. John’s College in Annapolis was ranked 56th. I mean, yeah, you can major in English at Sing Sing on the Severn, but you […]
