I just like to make people laugh.
I like to watch soccer, no matter what teams or players are in the field.
What a dog I got, his favorite bone is in my arm.
I poured spot remover on my dog. Now he's gone.
Giving votes in exchange for ideological support. To wit: identity politics for homosexuals.
Politics is a game and a profession. It doesn't really serve the people the politicians are supposed to serve.
It's a big deal for me to say I'm over politics.
The West Wing seems to be feeding the myth about how presidential politics are.
Nobody makes me laugh like my wife.
I always say, dare to struggle, dare to grin.
I've matured since joining United, on and off the field.
The people who work in the scientific field, they need help to convey what it's about.
There is a feeling the body gives the mind of having missed something, a bedrock poverty, like falling without the sense that you are passing through one world, that you could reach another anytime. Instead the real is crossing you, your body an arri...
Since the Leeburg Pike [at Tyson's Corner] carries six to eight lanes of fast-moving traffic and the mall lacks an obvious pedestrian entrance, I decided to negotiate the street in my car rather than on foot. This is a problem planners call the 'driv...

Sometimes grace is having the strength to persevere through the storm. Sometimes it's having the guts to rebuild, to take a chance, to follow your nose and your heart rather than your head. Sometimes grace is finding out that your preconceived notion...
New Rule: Don't name your kid after a ballpark. Cubs fans Paul and Teri Fields have named their newborn son Wrigley. Wrigley Fields. A child is supposed to be an independent individual, not a means of touting your own personal hobbies. At least that'...
In altre parole, uno degli scopi fondamentali delle emozioni è fornirci una scala di valori, in modo da poter scegliere che cosa è importante, costoso, bello o prezioso. In assenza di emozioni tutto ci sembrerebbe uguale, quindi ci ritroveremmo nel...
When someone doesn't show up, the people who wait sometimes tell stories about what might have happened and come to half believe the desertion, the abduction, the accident. Worry is a way to pretend that you have knowledge or control over what you do...
