...Like any art, or work, one hopes to reflect back who we are and what we’re doing and tell something about ourselves. If it gives some insight——you can’t always get to the heart of the matter——but if you can show some insight into the people that are so talented and so wonderful, that we can admire, then we can learn something from that, I think it’s great that it can play back into our lives. Because, really, this...

...like how uncool it is here. Imagine if iPod boy had run into his friend while listening to HSM. The ensuing conversation would be hilariously awkward! I’ve had it many times. And Disney is so uncool, it becomes cool. This is a thing I like to tell myself.As for the angsty thing—I’ve got plenty of my own inner angst.

Not only have past missile defense schemes—from Patriot Missiles to the Bush administration’s missile interceptor plans—failed, but every available option is inherently easy to fool. As Nobel laureate physicist Steven Weinberg argues, it is impossible to tell whether a missile is loaded or a decoy based on its trajectory above the Earth’s atmosphere. Hence it will always be possible to bypass a ballistic missile defense system, even if an accurate one were developed eventually...

...snoozes until 9:57. This leaves him exactly 10 minutes to pull his clothes out of the drawer, clamor around for his belongings, and slam the door on the way to what, I presume, must be his first class of the day. It’s hard to tell just what’s going on in my neighbor’s abode. The six to eight page paper-thin fire door separating our two rooms bars my curious eye and masks his more subtle sounds. But based on what I’ve heard, Piper’s definitely...
