"When I was eight I tried to memorize the dictionary." . . . Please come CAPTION George Will on Fox!



George ("Bow ties make me feel safe, like 'The world works' or something&quot Will is saying: "There's only one man on the entire planet capable of taking on Trump. . . . He's the bravest man I ever knew and has vast storehouses of fortitude. . . Heroic and majestic, his every fiber is intent on ready and final conquest. . . . And Chris, he makes even comic-book superheroes meager and pathetic by comparison. . . . The man I am speaking of is . . . Bobby Jindal!!!"



******************************************************************

Above CAPTION based on a Fox clip on Crooks & Liars:

I bought it on e-bay and it's never been washed. . . . What do you think of that?"

"My mother says it is childish for me to keep collecting baseball cards and gets mad and won't let me come up and sit in the living-room when she has people over. . . . But I tell her it's not childish and that I haven't wet the bed for months."

A man that raises taxes and pretends he didn't. A man that stared down gay marriage and said let's just be friends. A man that saw anchor babies and said I can do that too. A man that is a man and doesn't wear a dress while along dreaming about Ty Cobb. I think. He does things for America. Good things. Good Christian things like hate abortion and women. And in no way does he come off as a short sighted weasel that took one of the least functional states and somehow made it even less functional. You might want to edit out the last part.

"The hoax concerning global warming reminds me of Copernicus's hoax concerning the rotation of the earth around the sun. . . . We just don't learn, do we?"

in Infinite Jest. Actually, David Foster Wallace's father and George Will's father both taught philosophy at the University of Illinois. That's probably where David Foster Wallace got the idea of Hal Incandenza memorizing the Oxford English Dictionary.
