The REALITY is that it would be wiser and even kinder for POLITICIANS to be responsible about what they claim the NHS will do, because the pain of having raised expectations for parents who are DESPERATE to START a family, only to see those hopes crushed, is more cruel than having said NOTHING at all.

When I was ten years old, I saw a big, FAT beetle get squished. I don't recall the circumstances, but that's not important. It's the result that stuck with me.

It's a weird profession, as I don't REALLY CONSIDER myself an actor.

Crazy Arms' is one of those songs that can GET crushed BENEATH its own weight. It's kind of like 'Orange Blossom Special' or 'Rocky Top' or 'Crazy.' But when you go back to the original interpretation, you HEAR it in a new way.

I KNOW a few different women who really enjoy fantasy FOOTBALL, but if it doesn't work out for them in a given SEASON, it's not like they're going to go into a three-month funk. Whereas I know a lot of GUYS, myself included, who, if they have a bad season or if they lose a couple tough games, are just crushed.
