Count me as one of the chorus of people who, when the “Sonic the Hedgehog” movie was announced, rolled my eyes and exclaimed, “No one asked for this!” And yet, here I sit completely eating my words, because that movie with the weird VFX re-do that inspired some rather harsh memes turns out to be a complete delight, offering some really great family-friendly fun.

In fact, they thought it looked more like actor Chevy Chase as he looked during his stint co-starring on the NBC sitcom “Community.” First, at the top of the page…

See, during an appearance Sunday in New Hampshire, Biden was asked about his poor showing earlier in the week during the Iowa caucus fiasco. He replied by asking the questioner if she had ever attended a caucus, and when she said she had, he…
