...went with the sharing, apparently.) And he's torn about whether to wear this damn blingy ring the stylist gave him for the photo shoot that is just so not him, but then why get all hung up on perceptions? (He wore it.) And he brings out a list of talking points - all typed out - that he is going to tell me about the number 23, in which he's been interested for years (his daughter has a '23' tattoo), whether I want to hear them or not. "Blood takes 23 seconds to circulate the body... Jim Carrey plus Virginia...

From Donald Segretti's campaign of dirty tricks in the employ of Richard Nixon to the Swift Boat Veterans' attack on Senator John Kerry, such tactics have debased and degraded the electoral process and turned voters...
...Testament or as interpreted by Augustine, Aquinas, Dante, Luther, Milton, Pascal, Kierkegaard, and Dostoyevsy (to name but a few), the committed friend valorized by Montaigne, the citizen of the Kingdom of Ends described by Kant, the free spirit praised by Nietzsche, and so on. A similarly lengthy list could be compiled of those figures—from Lucifer to Macbeth, from Ivan Karamazov to Citizen Kane—who have suffered the consequences of living what was considered by their most eloquent interpreters to be the opposite of a good life. A careful reading of cases like these will show...
