The kids have plastic surgery too so that the pretense continues? Vanity surgery is different from reconstructive surgery to correct a deformity. The actress Jennifer Grey had a nose job after Dirty Dancing and she became unrecognizable and regretted having it done. Or so she said years ago. Cookie cutter beauty is available to anyone at a price. Show the plastic surgeon a picture of what you want to look like and I guess if it's possible for him/her to do it it gets done. Then you can look like every other pretty girl or every other good-looking guy. But don't you lose your individuality? A nose job for Barbra Streisand? She could have had it done but chose not to do so. What do you think? Why?Ode on a Grecian Urn by John Keats"Beauty is truth, truth beauty...that is all ye know on earth and all ye need to know". Now if you are talking about something other than PH... less

So all the liars out there are not being true to themselves and therefore not true to anyone else either. I suppose it is one way of living a life. It is certainly a way some choose. What do they gain and what do they lose?

The more things change the more they stay the same. Yes. I guess.

Here is my book's first sentence: "The imposter borrowed the name of Neville Manchin, an actual professor of American literature at Portland State and soon-to-be doctoral student at Stanford." It is a book about a rare-book heist. Name: "Camino Island", by John Grisham. The first sentence is an important part of writing books.

It can include make believe, alternative facts, lies alongside truthy things. Was anyone ever jailed for writing a TELL ALL book? Or fined? Or damaged? Don't TELL ALL authors usually make tons of money and show up on TV interview shows? Betcha "what I know about Trump" writers are already at it and I betcha folks in the Trump administration, all the leakers especially, are already collecting notes and photos to use when the time is right. Being a celebrity can be He**. Being Trump? Biglier He **! He is a rather large target after all. :( less
