Thoughts from Kansas

You will notice that it lacks definiteness; that it lacks purpose; that it lacks coherence; that it lacks a subject to talk about; that it is loose and wabbly; that it wanders around; that it loses itself early and does not find itself any more. --Mark Twain

Hardened and removed from reality

Laurie David ponders Karl Rove:

How hardened and removed from reality must a person be to refuse to be touched by Sheryl Crow?
This after Sheryl Crow tried to touch his arm in a conversation about global warming during the White House Correspondents Dinner.

Crow has been traveling the nation discussing the issue, so those of you not hardened and removed from reality missed a shot at getting touched by her if you didn't attend a nearby event.

...to refuse to be touched by Sheryl Crow?

Well, I don't know where she's been! :-)

In a spirit of experimentation, I think she should grope him next time to judge the reaction.

No, on second thought, that would be beyond any reasonable spirit of experimentation ...

I think Lance Armstrong probably kept things pretty clean, given all the tests he had to go through, and the brush with cancer. She should be alright.

Cult leaders are often anxious when they are caught away from the shelter of their minions and forced to interact with freethinkers.
