We sit at our consoles and play "Gears of War", but we don't see images from war. We don't turn on the news and see the evidence of war, the result of war. Maybe twice a year, Memorial Day, Veterans Day, we'll go out, we'll hang our flags, we'll try to inculcate in our children some sense of national honor for the fallen. But really, we don't see it. We just don't see the pictures. There's no drive-by on the freeway of death up close. So we don't really see bravery.

I too was a little embarrassed by my recent topless 'scandal' and the subsequent parodies.

I'm uninterested in superheroes. I am only interested in real stories, real people, real connection.

The more I like me, the less I want to pretend to be other people.

Kids are going to try drugs and alcohol; that's part of society.

My breasts are beautiful, and I gotta tell you, they've gotten a lot of attention for what is relatively short screen time.

Now all of a sudden I'm so less interested in pretending to be a lot of other people, and much more interested in being me.
