Frankly, I never thought Hitchens was all the great. His venomous attacks on Mother Teresa were unforgivable. I will hate him forever for that. It showed him devoid of all humanity. So, he was a wit. So what. Not a terribly great wit at that. All this fawning and celebration of his life is way over the top and misplaced.

It is commonly accepted that certain moral teachers (Al Gore, Mother Teresa, Joe Paterno) should be above criticism.

Hitch didn't accept than, and pointed out, that, like many people, Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu had her price. The only surprising thing was how low it could be: Cult Leader John-Roger got an endorsement from her for a mere $10,000.

Be careful.



Where there's a shell, there's a way.

25 years ago, we had Ronald Reagan, Johnny Cash, and Bob Hope.
Today we have Obama, no cash, and no hope!

If you can't appreciate the pure beauty of the violin after hearing this, something's wrong with your ears.

Or you can get raw with these strings.

How about this gamechanger from America's Got Talent (which they SHOULD have won).

Either way, the violin is sweet yet lethal.

Do it!
