If you gave Falwell an enema he could be buried in a matchbox
Christopher Hitchens On Jerry Falwell's Death
A brief bit of history regarding my feelings for Christopher Hitchens:
Brilliant drunk--->Crackpot drunken hawk--->Partially redeemed brilliant drunk
There you have it. Why the redemption? How about this clip, for starters:
(BTW, I do not use the word "drunk" pejoratively. I adore some drunks and have myself been one, on occasion.)You might have varied negative opinions about Hitchens, including his extremely pig-headed and wholly incorrect position on the war in Iraq (he's for it...still) and his arrogant posturing indicating that he is certain that he is the smartest person in any room.
That all said, he is very smart and, some might say to a fault, honest.
Another video after the jump, this time from the Fox "News" show Hannity & Colmes:

these mini-skirts predicted the future
Mini Skirt Monday #81: Leg X-ing
One common complaint of the mini was the annoyance of having to constantly be mindful of you were sitting. Unlike pants and long dresses, sitting with legs akimbo could result in a glorious or embarrassing eyeful (depending on your perspective). Thus, high school yearbooks and family albums from the early seventies are full to the brim with girls with legs crossed and strategically placed hands for cover. I'm sure it became almost reflexive for the women, but still something to be cognizant of nonetheless.
Anthony Quinn, you sly dog. So, in a constant effort to milk the Mini Skirt Monday for all it's worth, this post shall hereby be devoted to The Crossing of the Legs. Enjoy.
