I don't know what it is, but I, too, have always found him attactive. Maybe it's the hard-drinking, bad-boy Brit persona. Don't know. It's interesting to hear Hitchens, an atheist, talk about his cancer and his belief that there is no after-life. I certainly couldn't live that way, but to each his own. The stories aobut children coming home to boarded up homes is heartbreaking. I count my blessings every day.JMWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11850088300591079931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9043721957359281413.post-15566301280651542812011-03-07T08:04:48.215-05:002011-03-07T08:04:48.215-05:00julie

Hearing those childrens' voices was gut wrenching...I had my son watch some but he said it was too sad to watch for him....I can't disagree. It shed some light on how many people are still suffering in a very big way and while pockets of where we live might defy that, there are so many people suffering and to see it affect the kids like we did is just hard to shake...I wanted to reach in and grab every one of them and take care of them and take their worries away, not worries that an 11 year old should have.<br />Moving onto Christopher, I have always loved brilliant and eccentric people, I first found out about him through my father, who is an avid reader....he is provacative for sure but my husband who also watched agreed wtih almost all he said...particularly his views on the war (and the sizing up of Clinton) I hope he is able to beat this cancer, he is a brilliant mind whether or not you like him and to think he has made his home on American soil...now how about that!<br />PS I wonder if he might change his musings on God and religion if he ends up being cured..what do you think?The enchanted homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03417949320717832732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9043721957359281413.post-6626594003811300432011-03-07T07:21:17.635-05:002011-03-07T07:21:17.635-05:00I agree Christopher Hitchens is great to listen to...I agree Christopher Hitchens is great to listen to. I believe he is to debate Tony Blair shortly on religion, and I read in a recent interview he was asked whether his cancer had made him re-think his aetheism, which I thought was a pretty dumb question.columnisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03764365428633038329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9043721957359281413.post-52049197976025239732011-03-07T04:47:10.007-05:002011-03-07T04:47:10.007-05:00Hi Renee

First...the homeless children and their families...then MY ALL TIME FAVORITE LIVING WRITER..Christopher Hitchens....I knew he was ill....and have been keeping my fingers crossed...I am fortunate enough to have seen him lecture and debate....and then MEET HIM!!!...Most women I know don't get it..but I can confirm that he is sex on a stick and I was sweating the entire time we spoke....he made ME feel sexy....and even though I'm far to the left of his political views, I enjoy every word that comes out of his mouth. Lastly...PBS showed the 25 year reunion of Les Miserable tonight...it was several hours of beautiful music including a reunion of the original cast from 1985...I saw this production with my recently deceased mother.....I'm exhausted from it all.......GREAT POST....my fav of the week...kKathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02296124850643056197noreply@blogger.com
