    “Maybe it won’t come as too much of a surprise that a certain amount
    of alcohol was involved with this Darwin Award candidate of an idea,
    and though someone must have considered it ahead of time or the parachute
    and camera wouldn’t be there, it’s still pretty certain that the onset

    mentioned collegiate death sentence:
    “Hey man, watch this!”

    Michael G. Kramer
    “Cung said, “I have researched Vietnamese People fleeing to the land of the Uc da Loi! On the 26th of April 1976, the first boat carrying Vietnamese refugees arrived in Darwin. (Uc da Loi means Big Red Rat. The Vietnamese People named Australians as such because of the red kangaroo painted on the sides of Australian military vehicles. They did not know what a kangaroo was and so, they thought it was a rat. Hence the name of Uc da Loi.)

    (A Gracious Enemy & After the War Volume Two)”

    Carl Bernstein
    “THE WASHINGTON POST headline across page one in its editions of Wednesday, January 21, 1998, was shocking: “Clinton Accused of Urging Aide to Lie.” Bill had spent a tense night and early morning on the phone with Vernon Jordan, Bob Bennett, Bruce Lindsey, David Kendall, and Betty Currie, talking about the story and trying to keep his legal ducks aligned. Hillary said later he nudged her awake just after 7 A.M. and sat on the edge of their bed. “You’re not going to believe this,” she quoted him telling her, but there were “news reports” blanketing the Internet and airwaves as well, that he had had an affair with a young White House intern named Monica Lewinsky and had asked her to lie about it to Paula Jones’s lawyers.”
    ― Carl Bernstein, A Woman in Charge

    Mary Stewart
    “I saw it begin; even so, after battle, Ambrosious' very presence had give the wounded strength and the dying comfort. Whatever it was he had had about him, Arthur had the same; I was to see it often in the future; it seemed that he shed brightness and strength round him where he went, and still had it ever renewed in himself. As he grew older, I knew it would be renewed more hardly and at a cost, but now he was very young, with the flower of manhood still to come. After this, I thought, who could maintain that youth itself made him unfit for kingship? Not Lot, stiffened in his ambition, grimly scheming for a dead king's throne. It was Arthur's very youth which had whistled up today the best that men had in them, as a huntsman calls up the following back, or an enchanter whistles up the wind.”
    ― Mary Stewart, The Hollow Hills

    Alan Weisman
    “En un mundo sin humanos, las luces rojas dejarán de parpadear al cesar las emisiones de radio y de televisión; dejarán de producirse millones de conversaciones diarias a través de teléfono móvil, y al cabo de un año habrá varios miles de millones más de pájaros vivos.
    Pero mientras sigamos aquí, las torres de transmisión representan solo el principio de la involuntaria matanza que la civilización humana está perpetrando con unas criaturas con plumas a las que ni siquiera nos comemos.”
    ― Alan Weisman, The World Without Us
