I have had a lifelong phobia of snakes.

When for so long you can't get a job for reasons that seem specious, you you finally do have it, you are constantly afraid of losing it.

Being a novelty had its advantages.

In a small spacecraft, it was hard for the other two guys to sleep when the on-duty man was talking to Mission Control regularly.

My feeling for reality TV isn't ironic, guilty, or apologetic. Reality TV is one of the few remaining modes of popular entertainment in which characterization is permitted as plot.

Being famous gets me good concert tickets, good tables in restaurants, good seats at sporting events and that's really about it.
