1 Age

  • 1. When I write about a 15-year old I jump I return to the days when I was that age. It's like a time machine. I can remember everything. I can feel the wind. I can smell the air. Very actually. Very vividly.
  • 2. Light and funny has a more compelling quality when you're younger. But I haven't abandoned the genre: I love falling down I love Lucille Ball. It's just that a lot of those stories revolve around problems that I can't convincingly portray at this age.
  • 3. We have become a society that can't self-correct that can't address its obvious problems that can't pull out of its nosedive. And so to our list of disasters let us add this fourth entry: we have entered an age of folly that – for all our Facebooking and the twittling tweedle-dee-tweets of the twitterati – we can't wake up from.

2 Amazing

  • 1. My family is just an amazing melting pot of wonderful religions and faiths.
  • 2. My dad was a journalist. He was in Rwanda right after the genocide. In Berlin when the wall came down. He was always disappearing and coming back with amazing stories. So telling stories for a living made sense to me.
  • 3. I'm the lead singer of the Beach Boys and an ambassador of this amazing music that touched a generation.

3 Anger

  • 1. I think that Scottish people like Canadians are often misunderstood and what I like about my Scottish friends and relatives is how quickly it can go from love to anger. It's a great dynamic.
  • 2. Our humor turns our anger into a fine art.
  • 3. As a system of philosophy it is not like the Tower of Babel so daring its high aim as to seek a shelter against God's anger but it is like a pyramid poised on its apex.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. I've been sober for two-and-a-half years My children are happy. In August my wife and I will celebrate our fifteenth wedding anniversary. My band is back together with a sold-out tour.
  • 2. The chances of a reunion now are less likely. I was thinking of having a 40th anniversary of the band but now they are really another band so it's all a bit weird.
  • 3. A wedding anniversary is the celebration of love trust partnership tolerance and tenacity. The order varies for any given year.

5 Architecture

  • 1. There are no rules of architecture for a castle in the clouds.
  • 2. Doctrines provide an architecture for both Republican and Democrat presidents to carry out policies.
  • 3. But the building's identity resided in the ornament.
