That's another thing that's depressing: certain attitudes in congress. they assume that you're dumb; they can take advantage of you being dumb. i find that offensive. it insults our intelligence. they're playing us for dumb and they're being dumb in doing it. but i believe that's gonna change. i think those people, the mcconnells, are not helping us at all. they're taking us backward in time.

Haley and i would talk for hours about which member of 'n sync we'd want to marry. after long deliberation, the answer was always j. c. chasez. joey fatone's last name was going to be “fat one” no matter how great he was, and even though they didn't know at their age that lance bass was gay outright, they sensed he'd make a better good friend and confidante. as for justin timberlake, well, jt was the coolest and hottest, but too flashy, so we couldn't trust him to be faithful. j. c. chasez was the smart compromise.
