Reply to TIL about Deaf lifeguard Leroy Colombo, who overcame childhood paralysis through swimming and saved a record-breaking 900+ lives during his career. His swimming talent and use of sight rather than sound to identify drowning swimmers allowed him to save people other lifeguards would have missed. by lemontreelemur
Sight is more important though.

Polygamy was literally illegal. I assume they were trying to call the other "wives" whores or mistresses.
The first wife is the wife.
Pretty sure not many Mormon civil war veterans. Most were in Utah territory.

Agnostic. Not atheist.
In hindsight, the writing sucked and the messaging was heavy handed. Things got wrapped up in 44 minutes, including PTSD and drug addiction. Great gueststars.

Reply to comment by RetroMetroShow in TIL In 1971, the Guinness World Records listed Clara as the "Most Indefatigable Cruise Passenger". For 14 years, she lived on RMS Caronia, which cost her $396 in daily fare. Without accounting for inflation, Cunard Line received $4 million from her in tickets. by thenerdknuckle
Having to live around cruise ship people would suck.

I like how this show started out as forensics and ended as a gay relationship where neither man was gay. You can tell they stopped giving a fuck about making something commercial.
