That's not news to me. Not new, either.; 2/27/09, 11:07 AM

demian said...: Well, that was an insightless, thought-damping interview. Notice how Smith ducks every one of the questions and avoids specifics?; 2/27/09, 12:16 PM

Agree with you totally. What a waste of space that article was! Why not just say I'm the greatest and I don't do sex.; 2/27/09, 12:41 PM

Scruples does not relate to either politics or journalism.

Smith comes off as a self-absorbed twat, more than usual I might add.; 2/27/09, 3:26 PM

My analysis is that we may be entering a phase where ice cream will be in short supply.; 2/27/09, 6:12 PM
