Best piece of advice I've ever gotten: "Read before you write."
The first line of my obit should read: "Seymour M. Hersh, who survived the editorships of A.M. Rosenthal of the New York Times and David Remnick of the New Yorker . . . "
What I'd call Washington's new baseball team: "The Washington Orioles, to justify Peter Angelos's paranoia."
