Elvis: I don't like this show. Change it back to American Apocalypse on CNBC.
Courtney: American Apocalypse? OK, but I think you mean American Greed.
Elvis: Same difference.

I am not a great writer, but Bertrand Russell most certainly is
I am not a great writer. An acceptable writer on a lucky day, maybe. A good writer every once in a long while. But great? Not yet. I aspire to greatness, but I don't believed that my words could do justice to the mysteries or the complexities of life. So I look to others to articulate precisely the thoughts and prayers to which I cannot properly give voice.
What follows is a quote by Bertrand Russell. Bravo, Bertrand! I could not have said it better myself.
Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair.
