Know what's interesting about George Washington?
Let George W. tell you...

"That's George Washington, the first president, of course. The interesting thing about him is that I read three—three or four books about him last year. Isn't that interesting?"—Showing German newspaper reporter Kai Diekmann the Oval Office, Washington, D.C., May 5, 2006

2. Yeah that is intersting
You know what the interesting thing about Miles Davis is? I've listened to three or four of his records lately.

Because, as the center of the universe, others people derive their value from their contact with me.

5. It's easy to see how so many just give up trying
The mental gymnastics required with this crowd led by Bush just...hurts.

7. Here's a follow-up question:
How is the fact that you read 3 books on a subject something interesting *about that subject*?

And, more to the point, how were you able to read 3-4 books on George Washington, when you still haven't finished that book on the history of salt you've been pretending to read for going on 5 years now?
