2. Richard Clarke is the man. I’ve seen him talk three times so far: twice on the Daily Show, and once in person during an hour-long debate he had at Berkeley earlier this month. Each time, he’s proven to be very intelligent, extremely well-informed, and quite funny, too. It’s too bad all his talents are being squandered now (although I hope he makes a pretty penny off of them, at least).<\/p>\n

Well, I’m a worse shooter than that. Anyway, though, playing is really fun. I’m hoping to rise from “pathetic” to just “incompetent” by the end of the semester.<\/p>\n
