What is GREAT in MAN is that he is a BRIDGE and not a GOAL.

As kids, we have all handled SHOT guns. From there on, there is no transition. It STAYS in the TOY box. The idea is to get the transition and bridge the GAP between the toy box and the shooting range.

I first started GOING to CHELSEA GAMES in the mid-Nineties when I lived off the North END Road, ten minutes' walk from Stamford BRIDGE.

They're BUILDING a BRIDGE over the POTOMAC for all the WHITE liberals fleeing to VIRGINIA.

How can we BRIDGE the GAP between... African-American MALES and white COPS?

For me, Twitter works BEST as a way of taking pictures of being STUCK in traffic on the Brooklyn BRIDGE. If people really want to read really funny quips about life, PARENTING, and pop culture, then by all means read Michael Ian Black's tweets.

I FIND that it's best to TAKE one STEP at a time and CROSS each bridge as they COME to you.

You don't read many POSITIVE things about Iran in the press, which is depressing, but when I go back to my grandparents' house in the hills, and I'm sitting by the pool, sipping a bootleg Turkish beer, watching a pirate DVD, eating my GRANDMA's COOKING... you realise there is a real bridge between POLITICS and COUNTRY and people.

But which is the STONE that SUPPORTS the BRIDGE?

Typically, highway bridges have about 50 YEARS. But over in ENGLAND, they have iron bridges approaching 250 years. In France, there are Roman aqueducts that are approaching 2,000 years OLD. So a bridge can LAST a very long time if it's BUILT properly in the first place and then maintained properly.

For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by things large and small. I wanted to know what made my watch tick, my radio PLAY, and my HOUSE stand. I wanted to know who invented the bottle cap and who designed the BRIDGE. I GUESS from early on I wanted to be an engineer.

I'm committed to sign in everything I communicate, but I ALSO speak. I still believe that I reach more people when I do that. I BRIDGE two different cultures and two different worlds, and I think that bridge still needs WORK.

Doing the show was like PAINTING the George Washington BRIDGE. As soon as you FINISHED one end, you started RIGHT in on the other.

I WANT to be the BRIDGE to the NEXT GENERATION.
