A charity auction site is also offering the chance to meet the Dalai Lama, but the highest bid on that honor is a mere $5,000. We can therefore conclude that Robert Pattinson is six times better than His Holiness. » 11/25/10 3:00pm 11/25/10 3:00pm

"I call myself a feminist. Isn't that what you call someone who fights for women's rights?" said the Dalai Lama to an audience in Memphis yesterday. "We all come from the same mother. That creates the basis for compassion." [FeministLawProfessors] » 9/24/09 9:20am 9/24/09 9:20am

Hey look! It turns out that whole time Bill Richardson was poking little rhetorical holes in Barack Obama's record, he was actually in the back of his mind thinking, "Wow, America, if you listen to all this "experience" bullshit, you're spoiling a ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME CHANCE."
