I have three favorite politicians: Reagan Truman and Bobby Kennedy - Bobby for showing remarkable political courage despite being loathed by many on both sides.

But despite the universality of URLs we often forget that they're not just a handy way to address network resources. They're also valuable communication tools.

Despite the fact that in America we incarcerate more juveniles for life terms than in any other country in the world the truth is that the vast majority of youth offenders will one day be released.

Of all the planets apart from Earth in our solar system Mars is the most hospitable. Yeah. Right. Better keep my visit short. And yet despite the discomfort the danger I love it here. I love coming back for these imaginary vacations. The sights are amazing.

Man does not live by words alone despite the fact that sometimes he has to eat them.

Despite what anti-aging ads say growing older can be better. I feel better in my skin 100 percent. You have greater effects of gravity but the better sense of yourself you have is something I wouldn't trade. Women who lie about their age - 'why?'
