Falling into bed with a hooker half your age and then sexting her for six months before being caught doesn't qualify as a mistake in my humble opinion.<br /><br />Not being judgemental, I have made bad choices in my life as well but I have never classified them as a mistake. <br />DaveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7823625636675642409.post-12494415534173955682013-12-30T14:39:21.971-08:002013-12-30T14:39:21.971-08:00I probably would have walked out of the room and t...I probably would have walked out of the room and thrown up.

I should have included this one on Christmas. It's a true story about a house for the blind in Philly where the residents would decorate a tree they couldn't see for everyone else to enjoy. <br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRISwzk1Q3Ipumpkinheadnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7823625636675642409.post-88585518250634250332013-12-30T10:40:15.398-08:002013-12-30T10:40:15.398-08:00As a veteran thought-to-mouth direct conduit mysel...As a veteran thought-to-mouth direct conduit myself, I would have likely still said it, but tried to follow up with a joke. <br /><br />Something like: "I mean, that's only two or three degrees above a TV writer."<br /><br />Was Wollinsky (for Lewinsky) his mistake or yours?<br /><br />wgWendy M.

And somehow Chris Matthews said, "Thank God for Sandy." He meant it helped re-elect the President, who got all the great press reacting to the storm.<br /><br />To quote a famous line from a movie (which owes its origins to Machiavelli), "Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer."<br /><br />However, Earl, you always seem to say exactly what you think, as your story about attending an "Everybody Loves Raymond" rehearsal indicated, which led to you NOT getting a script assignment.<br />You're too Canadian.Candanoreply@blogger.com
