A Trans-Atlantic Trip Turns Kafkaesque

»Using her Martian language skills, the American Airlines woman proposed to take us “through the border” at Heathrow, for a night of rest before we resumed our journey the next morning. An apocalyptic scenario: an employee of the world’s worst airline assigned to the world’s worst border crossing at the world’s worst airport.«

Der Feminismus ist dir nichts schuldig.

»Niemandem ist geholfen, wenn Feminismus weichgespült wird, nur damit auch der letzte Idiot mitgezogen wird. Was dann nämlich passiert, ist, dass sich die Einstellung “naja, Frauen haben ja schon die gleichen Rechte, sooo schlimm isses ja nicht” noch mehr manifestiert.

The Boy They Couldn't Kill

»One night 13 years ago a wound was opened in the dark, in a place deep in the abdomen that surgeons call the seat of the soul. The wound was a subterranean river, and it was not closed off until there was no more blood to lose. Professional athletes have done many terrible things over the years, but this was probably the worst. An unborn boy lay in the dark near the rising lake of his mother's blood, and soon he would join her on the brink of death.«

Two Presidents, Smoking and Scheming

»BARTLET Did your staff let you know the debate was gonna be on television? OBAMA (looking in the other room) Is that Jeff Daniels? BARTLET That’s Will McAvoy, he just looks like Jeff Daniels. OBAMA Why’s he got Jim Lehrer in a hammerlock? BARTLET That’s called an Apache Persuasion Hold. McAvoy thinks it’s the responsibility of the moderator to expose — what are they called? — lies.«
