But there's a catch: You have to spend it on somebody else. The sometimes elusive goal of "happiness" is always at least somewhat subjective despite what scientific methodologies might be brought to bear. Individual temperament obviously makes a difference too; what makes me happy might not make you happy. But as a general finding, I'm not surprised: It...

I watched as the EMTs carried off one of our soccer players at Bush Park today. John, a sixty-ish fellow, who played with us occasionally, collapsed in the middle of scrimmage and never regained consciousness. We were fortunate to have two doctors playing with us, and they started CPR immediately and directed the paramedics when they arrived. Maybe it was...

Okay, I'm (once again) not going to say definitively that the game is over because, frankly, I find myself smitten with babies and little kids. Just adore them. It's wonderful to be so needed, it's great fun to help them learn, and it's awe-inspiring to watch them grow. But current thinking is that we've had the kids we're going to have. In Jonah, Elisha...

Honestly, I'm not even sure Hillary supporters know how idiotic they look sometimes. This is, as the poster him or herself wrote, "Painful. Just really painful."

I'm not saying that Eliot Spitzer isn't a gigantic hypocrite or that breaking the law (especially when you were elected on a "Mr. Clean" law-and-order platform) shouldn't get you removed from office. And I've got to say further that I'm none too fond of what he's done to his wife or three teenage daughters, though that's obviously their issue and not mine...

See Hillary's ad: Read Camille Paglia's take: Would I want Hillary answering the red phone in the middle of the night? No, bloody not. The White House first responder should be a person of steady, consistent character and mood -- which describes Obama more than Hillary. And that scare ad was produced with amazing ineptitude. If it's 3 a.m., why is the...

Complete with swear words.

Thank God somebody did the math so I wouldn't have to. Bottom line: Obama is a lot closer to the number of delegates needed for victory than the media makes it appear. Clinton needs to win 67.5% of all remaining delegates to win the nomination. Every time she loses a state or in fact wins at a margin less than 67.5%, the percentage of remaining delegates...

For more candid, genuine and sincere than perhaps most would expect--I can't even imagine Hillary Clinton giving a similar speech--but not if you know Samantha Power.

Not, as some might suspect, that the IRS just spent $42 million to send out notices about the economic stimulus package. No, today's national embarrassment is President Bush's veto of a bill to ban waterboarding and other forms of torture. The sooner this man is out of office the happier the world will be. He's easily the worst president of my lifetime,...
