Just like last time, I’ll give you a plot, and you figure out the title I’m referring to.  Here we go:

There’s a new kid in town in Southern California.  He’s a nice kid from the wrong side of the tracks, and he has a bit of a temper.  That temper falls away when he meets Rich Blonde Teenage Girl (RBTG), who seems to like him even though she’s too rich and blonde for him.

But all is not well for our protagonist and his RBTG.  You see, RBTG used to be involved with Rich Blonde Muscular Dude, who has a temper bigger than our protagonist’s and the fighting skills to back it up.  And Rich Blonde Muscular Dude wants RBTG back.

Our protagonist and the Rich Blonde Muscular Dude get into scuffles over the next few weeks, each one escalating to new heights of violence.  This all comes to a head when, late one night, Rich Blonde Muscular Dude tries to drive our hero off the road… and succeeds.

Okay: Guess the Title.

Let’s play a new game called Guess the Title!  Here’s a story for you.  You read it and then guess what title I’m referring to.

Ready?  Here we go:

Two characters who live back in historical times have finally returned from a long and brutal war.  One is a knight: blond, gaunt, tired from the years of fighting, yearning to return to his beautiful wife whom he married when they were both very young.  He is usually quiet and stoic, a state that obscures his tormented inner soul and existential anguish.  Every so often he’ll break down and start raging against the gods.

The other man is his squire.  He’s a buff fellow with buzzed hair, and he’s the exact opposite of his master.  He’s gruff, bawdy, and he loves the world.  Not one for angst, he’s a “live in the moment” kind of guy.  In fact, he barely takes a moment to think of the consequences before he saves a poor, nearly-mute, oh-so-hot waif from slavery and death, even though it could have gotten him into major trouble.  Don’t be fooled by his singing and joking, though; he can easily kill you if you get in his way.

Although these two seem to have nothing in common, they are the best of friends, sticking together even as the world crumbles around them.  Their quest is to return home and live in peace – but death lurks around every corner.

Okay: Guess the Title.

So I was watching the season premiere of The Unit last night. This is a show on CBS about an elite military unit. And look what I saw:

One of the Executive Producers is named “Frank Military.” How is this possible? Is it a pseudonym? A coincidence? Or did growing up with the name “Frank Military” somehow lead to a job on a military TV show?
