Paul Weller Quotes
When I was a kid in Woking, every week you went to the football dance, and every week the top kids would be wearing something different.

That's the whole Mod thing, I suppose.

During the Obama years, the Republicans have done an unprecedented amount of stonewalling on cabinet-and-below appointees.
