...conditioning (or heating) shuts down. Once it becomes clear that this is no temporary brownout, the public begins to panic. At the power utilities, engineers can't understand why the network shut off, and can't get it to start up again. It's hours before the truth emerges: a terrorist group (or a hostile country, or some evil-genius hacker) has broken into the computer networks that control the power grid, bringing the U.S. to its knees...

...Publicly, the Obama Administration made the standard disapproving noises. "A serious step in the wrong direction," said White House spokesman Robert Gibbs. But in truth, North Korea's latest gambit could not have been altogether surprising to anyone in Washington - least of all to the State Department diplomats who have been dealing with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) for the past decade. They know that even in Pyongyang, North Korean officials have access to the Internet. If they cared to, they could have read yesterday's New York Times, which reported that the Obama Administration is considering...

...taking the honorable steps," says Farina. Perhaps. But Lugo's behavior leading up to his admission on Monday was reminiscent of former U.S. President Bill Clinton before he conceded his affair with Monica Lewinsky in 1998.

That's great. Now, you're very honest about being 55 years old. Many people in show business are not honest about their ages. Why did you decide to go that route? Because I was an idiot. Years ago I told the truth about my age, and it stuck with me. I think honesty is always better. People can look you up in your yearbook. They can Google you. What's the point of lying about it anyway? That just makes people look foolish. It's one thing to not tell certain things about yourself. I think that's totally...

That is an interesting story. Yes, it might make you feel better for a second. But the truth is, you'd trade places with those kids in a second if you could. But at the same time, it's when we become so focused on stuff like that that we're obnoxious to be around. Nobody wants to be around a Debbie Whiner and all she can do is talk about the fact that she just turned 50. You know what? She's blessed she just turned 50. I've got friends who never made...
