Now THAT'S Unusual!

Wow. Christopher Hitchens really IS eeee-vil, just like George Galloway says! How do I know? I saw Chris in an extended interview on TV yesterday, and he was smoking. On camera. Actually inhaled and exhaled. We all know only bad people smoke. I can't remember the last time I saw anyone smoking on-camera. That used to happen all the time, back in the day. Not any longer. I'm shocked, really.

So, do I remove Chris from my official Heroes List? Not bloody likely. Hitchens is my absolute favorite ex-socialist. I try to read everything he writes and agree with most of what he has to say. And I love the way he says it! Here's a recent Hitchens column; here's an older one.

(Full disclosure: I smoke.)
