    And the reason it is your favourite dinosaur is it was one of the first villains in the Champions Enemies book. It is Ankylosaur.

    Thanks to Covid-19 I have completed all of the Witcher books by Andrzej Sapkowski.  I have no issues giving them a strong recommendation.  The author's writing style is unusual but it works.  If you do pick up the books be sure to start with "The Last Wish" and "Sword of Destiny"  which are both collections of short stories.  
     
    I have not read "Season of Storms" yet...

    Tiffany adopts two dogs, and she names them Rolex and Timex. "Where'd you come up with those names?" asks her friend Mandy. "HellOOOOOO," Tiffany replies. "They're watchdogs!"

    It also contains access to the totality of human disinformation and stupidity, with little to differentiate it from actual knowledge.

    The Wiz: Musical adaptation of the L. Frank Baum work. It desperately needed to be edited down from its 2 hour and 15 minute runtime. (Peacock)
     
    The Shadow: I have to admit, I like this one more than the critics did. Based upon the original books and radio plays. (Blu-ray)

    This one was solved previously.  The Stormtrooper misses, but the redshirt dies anyways.

    A Little League coach pulls his 9-year-old pitcher aside and asks, "Do you know what cooperation is? What a team is?"
     
    "Yes, coach," replies the little boy. 
     
    "And you understand that what matters is whether we win or lose together as a team?"
     
    The little boy nods.
     
    "So," the coach continues, "I'm sure you know, when an out is called, you shouldn't argue, curse the umpire, or call him an a*****e. Do you understand all that?"
     
    Again, the little boy nods.
     
    "And when I take you out of the game so that another kid gets a chance to play, it's not a dumb-*** decision, and the coach isn't a ****head, right?"
     
    "Right, coach."
     
    "Good," says the coach. "Now go over there and explain all that to your mother.”

    Point of order.  Luke was never called Skywalker on Tatooine--he was always Luke.  Just Luke.  It's even there in the dialogue--
     
    C-3PO:  "I see, sir."
    LUKE: "You can call me Luke."
    C-3PO:  "I see, Sir Luke."
    LUKE: (Chuckles) "No--just Luke."
     
    Not even in the deleted scenes does the name Skywalker come up--not until the detention block scene--
     
    LUKE: "I'm Luke Skywalker, I'm here to rescue you!"
     
    Which leads me to conclude that Luke did not know his father's name growing up on Tatooine--if anything, he was likely called Luke Lars.  With good reason, as Uncle Owen didn't want him knowing the truth of his origins.
     
    Hope that helps.
