From a story by Jeremy Gordon

A Stone Cold Stunner—associated with Stone Cold Steve Austin—is a maneuver famous in what form of entertainment?

It happens in the ring.

And by the way, did you know that Teddy Roosevelt went blind in one eye as a result of boxing with a military aide while president? Imagine being the low-ranking official who knocked out half of the leader of the free world’s vision.

Roosevelt decided that his remaining sight was too precious to risk with more boxing, so he took up a gentler hobby. Knitting? Philately? Well—somewhat gentler: jiujitsu.

Until tomorrow!
