And I'm a Catholic, from an Irish Catholic family, and we know plenty of stuff about guilt.

I'm not a big comic fan and I'm not a big fan of comic movies.

Lyndon Johnson may have escalated the war, but when I was drafted and shipped off to Vietnam, the signature on my orders was Nixon's.

I was the adoring son of a Welsh-Irish father, a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat, a Catholic Knight of Columbus who was a blue-collar, trade union organizer and, not surprisingly, a fervid Nixon-hater.

I believe in delegating power.

Life was what happened when all the what-ifs didn't.

If you don’t know about Tumblr then you are not supposed to know about Tumblr. It’s like fight club.

I think Rihanna always looks so fresh and I'm like, "How do you do that? We all know how much pot you smoke!"

Use only things you find around the bathroom to create something. Extra credit: make it in the bathroom!
