Female: Debra Winger. Tremendous character actor, who had a couple of popular moments (and three Oscar nominations to boot) but became unfashionable very quickly, even as the roles she played became ever more interesting. Recommended viewing: 'The Sheltering Sky' (1990), 'A Dangerous Woman' (1993). Male: David Thewliss. Got on the Hollywood treadmill for a little while, but soon got off again - probably due more to boredom than disillusion. Ei

'don't hide behind your blog.' That's pretty rich, coming from someone who changes his blog name more often than many people change their underwear!

'...this is probably a poor idea to use on younger students, as they probably are probably not able to make an educated, or rather, the best choice.' 'Thats why I said high school aged kids.' i.e. Younger kids might pick the wrong education for themselves. Therefore let's wait until they have been sufficiently educated to pick the right education for themselves. Hmm.

'Before you all pile on me because I didn't prove anything I said, please go back and read previous posts.' Okay, I've done that. In general they are even more ridiculous, irrational, subjective, unproven and downright frothing-at-the-mouth than this one. So, can we pile on you now?

'Because Britain did not recently and often announce her intention to destroy another country and annihilate its population? Did this reason not occur to you or is it not good enough?' But Britain seems to be doing rather more of that than Iran, just at the moment ...

'yep no doubt right now dick cheny is sneakin round the subways tunnels planting bombs so we have an excuse to go to war with IRAQ' Yeah right. Like he thinks he ever needed one ...

It depends on the original circumstance though, Lucas. Is it really that you support the rights of people who say ridiculous things to say them, or is it that you support the ridiculous things they say? There is a good defence for the former, much less of one (almost by definition) for the latter. Incidentally, I have a question for you ... why have you changed your JU identity yet again? Bearing in mind that you have been ... shall we say 'ec

Chill out, CC. A couple of points: 1. This emoticon - - means people are JOKING. 2. I certainly didn't intend any offence, and I doubt very much that anyone else did either. Indeed, I read little whip's contributions in particular as extremely friendly and helpful. 3. NOBODY 'discredited' the life you have lived! 4. Suggest you read some other blogs on JU, and get a bit

Presumably Mr. Galt, you would be happy to see Americans able to walk in to a corner shop and freely buy cocaine / heroin / plutonium / submachine guns / anthrax / intercontinental ballistic missiles / tanks / nuclear warheads etc. By your argument, that would make America 'better', in that it would enhance the freedom of people to be stupid. 'It’s a risk you take, because the reward is self-determination and is more than worth it' If that

If you have to ask, then perhaps you haven't 'lived quite the life' as much as you suggest in your previous article!

'I'm not sure about this. "Jude" means "Jew."' Not in this case it doesn't. It is well documented that 'Hey Jude' was written by Paul for Julian, son of John and Cynthia (whose marriage was unravelling at the time). As for Fave vs. Best, well, what is 'Best' in art if not simply that which one likes the most - i.e. one's favourite? For me, that's 'In My Life' - it's succinct yet erudite, profound yet simply expressed, tuneful yet worthy of

'Yes, I keep harping on this same topic.' Well, at least you acknowledge this. What you don't get is WHY ... because 'they [people] will believe what they want to believe'.

'Frankly...if yer a democrat, republican, or a purple spotted zebra....doesn't matter to me...' If that's true, Lucas, why go to such an overtly partisan source for your posts? As I've said before, I'd be far more interested to read YOUR views than have you simply regurgitate those of others, of any political complexion.

'Prostitution is def a way to break down the family unit. Not many women will tolerate their husbands frequenting a ho-bag. ... In every aspect this "profession" breaks down the family unit.' Tova7, how is this the fault of the prostitute or her profession? Who put a gun to the husband's head and forced him to cheat on his wife? Perhaps what breaks down the 'family unit' is those who choose to seek sex outside it, not those whom they seek it
