LEGENDARY: On this day 35 years ago, Ohio State backup QB Kirk Herbstreit broke free for a 72-YARD TOUCHDOWN run against Minnesota.
Herbstreit helped lead the Buckeyes to a dominant 35-6 victory over the Golden Gophers at the Metrodome.
WHAT A THROWBACK.
When Marcia Wallace died in 2013, The Simpsons retired her character, Edna Krabappel. In the next new episode, Bart went to the chalkboard and wrote one line: “We’ll really miss you, Mrs. K.”
Wallace was 70 and had voiced Bart’s teacher since the show’s first season. The episode ended with a second tribute, this time to Wallace herself.
Months later, the show gave Edna a goodbye of her own. Ned Flanders pictured himself dancing with her, then said quietly, “I sure do miss that laugh.”
A hooded figure with a spear waits among the gravestones under a red moon, and the bat has already decided to leave. Jon Arfstrom painted him for our January 1952 cover, on the issue with August Derleth's "The Black Island," and he looks like he keeps these hours.
"When I told you no man is held at the hermitage, I was being honest. What you saw is not a man. It is the Devil himself!"

THIS IS AN ELITE ATHLETE.
One of the corgis at the #Panthers Corgi Race decided to go ROGUE and took off running across the field, forcing multiple people to chase him down.
THE FUNNIEST VIDEO OF THE DAY.
😭😭😭
Natalie your artwork was fantastic! Congrats!
Thanks for the kind words about the Monster-Mania community! My dad (in whose memory we do this) would be so proud!
It's taken me a little while to find the words to express how I feel about last weekend.
First, I am SO incredibly grateful to everyone who stopped by the mid mod maven table, took a moment to look at my artwork, shared a kind word, or purchased something. It truly means more than you know.
Reinventing yourself at 42 isn't easy. As much as I loved decorating cookies, I always wanted to create something that people could enjoy for years to come.
I'll admit, setting up on Friday and seeing all the incredible artwork at Monster Mania, I started questioning whether I had made the right decision. I honestly don't think I've ever been so nervous!
The response was above and beyond what I could have hoped for. The kindness, encouragement, and genuine excitement people showed for my work made all those doubts feel a little smaller and reminded me why I wanted to do this in the first place.
I've said it for the past 10 years, and I'll keep saying it. The Monster Mania community is truly one of the kindest and most supportive groups of people I've ever encountered.
Thank you for making this new chapter feel like the beginning of something really special. Can't wait for Oaks!❤️
@FletcherWDSU Sounds like the AD is trying to disassociate himself from any blame. Sounds like a real standup guy. I'm sure his players appreciate his lack of support during a very bad time. Looks to me like he's the one who needs to move on.
