Up close and personal wasn't needed by Smith in matter of top pick: A.J. Smith calls April “Liar's Month.” And he's right, of course. NFL general managers find it terribly difficult to tell the truth when it isn't April, let alone draft time, when prevarication becomes the verbal brush work of Michelangelo and Da Vinci. In this case, A.J. didn't really lie. He just didn't tell the truth.

Can McCain appeal to Hispanic voters maintain?: For many conservatives, John McCain is not their favorite Republican.

We all waited 15 minutes after the last bell, and then we'd walk over to the Girl Scout Hut on our school playground. That's what we called it. Of course, boys called it the Boy Scout Hut.
