...very principled stance that Hill and his publisher have taken, a conscious decision not to milk Hill's patrimony for publicity, and which I am now helping to ruin. They are right to do this, and I am wrong to use it for the sake of a good opening paragraph. There are only two things worth saying about Hill's distinguished ancestry. One is that whatever King has, he evidently passed along to his son, because Heart-Shaped Box is a top-notch piece of horror fiction. The other thing I'll save for the end of this review...
...that his office could not account for every situation and thus could not answer the councillor’s question. However, Kelley continued to press Healy, saying the council would have possessed more useful information had Healy provided a “three-page resolution instead of a three-paragraph one.” “I’m not in favor of reports for the sake of reports,” Healy responded.

...eighth paragraph she denounces McCain as a hypocrite, presumably on fiscal irresponsibility and pork-barrel spending (or perhaps, again, for his being a pro-life conservative, cementing the author’s amazing ignorance on American conservatism) but on what evidence? She gives none, leaving the reader only with well-established facts: McCain was a lonely GOP voice and vote opposing Bush’s tax cuts because they were fiscally irresponsible. He has long opposed pork, and whether the author knows it or not, he was specifically referring to a infamous piece of pork in his reference...
