...very cartoony and extremely primitive. Then you move up to the tattoo artists that began in the '70s, and a lot of these guys could really draw. There's more color. In Bert Grimm's time they had three colors - black, green and red - and they weren't too sure about the red, and they weren't too sure about the green. Then the next group up is my group, the late '80s and early '90s. No Tasmanian devils, no half-naked pirate chicks or Harley Davidson-inspired stuff. Everything we were doing was like fantasy...
...scientist training for media. First you have to fill their heads up with information they've never considered about what the media is and what it does: what the difference is between different kinds of reporters and how they might want something very different from your story and making sure the science is being conveyed in a helpful way. Scientists tend to be sticklers for accuracy but they will not put nearly as much effort into delivering something pithy. It's really hard to get all the nuances through...
...breaking the law doesn't deter you, it's difficult to hoodwink a doctor into believing that a fraudulent organ donor's motives are purely altruistic.

But Newark is still a drug-infested, poverty-stricken place where rubble piles up on Park Avenue and the shabby Hotel Riviera sits across the street from an auto-parts joint, around the corner from an abandoned five...
...helped New York City mayors Rudy Giuliani and Michael Bloomberg cut Big Apple crime. Booker took a huge risk because in Newark, McCarthy had two strikes against him. First, he's white. In a majority-black city fraught with racial tension between residents and police officers, that was sure to anger some locals. Second, he's not from Newark, a provincial town accustomed to giving plum public-sector jobs to its own. So here comes this Ivy League mayor reared in the suburbs entrusting the police department to a white outsider? Political suicide, anyone? "If you're a white Irish...
