That was his answer.
Tim Russert had asked him what he would want to be his epitaph.

He did ask a lot of tough questions. Very tough.
In fact, he was the first to do it on Television.

Much has been made in the press recently about the “Gender Gap” when it comes to politics. A recent poll by Pew Research shows that President Obama outpolls Mitt Romney by 20 percentage points among women, while among men the gap is only 3 points – a statistical tie.
At Keirsey.com, our research has long shown a noticeable difference between the 4 Temperaments when it comes to politics. Prior research has shown that Guardians tend to be the most politically conservative, while Idealists tend to be the most liberal. During our polling prior to the 2008 presidential vote, we found that Artisans made up the largest block of undecided voters late in the election cycle. Rationals are the most skeptical voters. Not surprisingly, these poll findings fall right in line with Keirsey Temperament Theory.
Between April 3-5, Keirsey Research surveyed 1,568 registered U.S. voters to measure the “Temperament Gap” for the current election cycle. With the recent Supreme Court arguments over the 2010 Health Care Act fresh in the news, and the 2012 primary campaign in full swing, we posed the following questions to our respondents:

Happy Easter! The spring is officially upon us my dears and with it comes the grand opening of Warner Bros. Studio Tour London – The Making of Harry Potter in Leavesden, England, 18 miles north of London. On the heels of the smashing success of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Orlando, our dear and beloved friends at Warner Bros. Studios have decided to make the place where the most successful film series of all time was shot available to the general public.

“If something doesn’t make sense, it’s usually not true.”
No, she doesn’t put up with nonsense.
“Baloney!” that is what she will say — her stock phrase.
Yes, she is well known for her no-nonsense legal style and powerful personality, sharpness, and quick wit.
Yup. You guessed it. The Avengers. And the four basic personality types. How did you know?!??
It looks like Loki’s army is going to be a bunch of Skeletor from He-Man looking things a.k.a this guy right here:
Which actually looks pretty cool I guess. I definitely wouldn’t fight that guy. Would you? He looks mean-spirited.
Where did you find these people Loki? They look like undesirables. And we all know what happens when you mingle with undesirables.
What perhaps we should be more concerned about is the guys that are on our squad. Like for instance the Not So Friendly Green Giant and the Armored Avenger.
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey now has a full trailer and it looks like Peter Jackson still doesn’t suck at making movies so that’s definitely good news.
Being the iconic film-maker that he is; Peter Jackson is starting to document his film making via blogging and so far it looks like he is doing a real bang-up job on such a nostalgic tale so hat’s off to him. For those of you unfortunate folk who do not know The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is one of two films currently being shot that is based off of J.R.R. Tolkein‘s world renowned novel entitled The Hobbit which takes place in the same world (Middle-Earth) as the academy award winning Lord of the Rings Trilogy. The film will star titular character Bilbo Baggins played by Martin Freeman, Gandalf the Grey played by Sir Ian Mckellen and a small but very cheerful company of dwarves led by Thorin Oakensheild played by Richard Armitage. Given the delight-filled spirit of this whole thing lets take a look at incorrigible combo Bilbo Baggins and his dear and old friend Gandalf the Grey.

The heart-ache, and the thousand Natural shocks
That Flesh is heir to?
‘Tis a consummation Devoutly to be wished.
So why does she go on? Continue reading Going where others fear to tread
