In 1255, Louis IX of France presented an elephant to Henry III of England to add to the menagerie of exotic animals he kept in the Tower of London.

The English king's power was curbed by Parliament, though that wasn't always a good thing, as politicians often behave no better than monarchs - there are just more of them.

You probably found 'How to Survive a Robot Uprising' in the humor section. Let's just hope that is where it belongs.

I'd follow Ben Hogan and Byron Nelson anywhere.

If you actually dissect the lyrics in 'Motley Crue', you'll notice that there's a lot going on beneath the surface.
