I've learnt more physics from Kabbalah than I ever did in school.
The trouble with school is they give you the answer, then they give you the exam. That's not life....
A school out of Canberra sends me a term's worth of work. I sit on the couch by myself and complete it and send it back.
In the U.K. there is still work to be done, particularly in schools, stopping the homophobic bullies in the playground and introducing unbiased discussion on gay issues in the classroom.
I know, as an overachiever straight-A student in school, I always responded to smart, strong, women represented on screen.
I pine for a return to the type of old-school journalism and the tough newspapermen and women of the Thirties.

Pete Berman sized up his competition like a predator lining up its prey. Gerry Williams dribbled once with his left hand, stopped on a dime, and nailed an open 15-footer. He had played on the Fellingwood Varsity Basketball Team since his freshman yea...
