Good for the Mayor of Vegas, what else would you expect for the head of Sin City
As for the quote from Bertrand Russell I try to apply that which makes for some interesting answer to a 3.5 year old who is in the "why" phase (occasionally I'll ask him what he thinks as to why something happens during the series of why's to get his mind started)
Example - I smoke but try not to in front of mind son
When he asked me if I did smoke cigarettes
I thought for a second and told him I did every now and then (about 30 times a day when he's not around)
Didn't bother with the long speech about they are bad for you because I thought that would possibly make them more attractive to him
then that damn seat belt thing ......
