Curb<\/em> fans will enjoy this real-life origin story.<\/p>\n

One evening, as they drank into the night, it dawned on them. \u2018I looked at his face and I said, \u201cThere\u2019s something about you, man, that spooks me.\u201d Just saying that spooks everyone!\u2019 It clicked. \u2018\u201cYou\u2019re Richard Lewis!\u201d \u201cYou\u2019re Larry David!\u201d\u2026 I was yelling at him, he was yelling at me.\u2019<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u2018I disliked him intensely\u2019: Richard Lewis on first meeting Larry David<\/a><\/p>\n

A great Q&A with Darryl McDaniels of Run-DMC.<\/p>\n

Our downfall came after\u00a0Raising Hell<\/em>\u00a0when we stopped being Run-D.M.C. and became \u201cRun-D.M.C.,\u201d a band that had to have a hit record, get on MTV, and live up to expectations and a lifestyle that had nothing to do with why we got together in the first place.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I tend to like Sean McFate\u2019s worldview, but am often frustrated by his writing style, which can get in the way of his points. That aside, an interesting take on how we are likely planning (and spending spectacularly) on the wrong next war.<\/p>\n

However, American traditionalists do not see the threat here. For them, war only occurs when bullets fly. They may be patriots, but sneaky war exploits their ignorance.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Sneaky War: How to Win the World Without Fighting<\/a><\/p>\n

Here is a great Cold War story I had never heard before. It is certainly unorthodox and has some fascinating twists to it.<\/p>\n

How did an ordinary American become a Soviet icon? And who was the Man from Fifth Avenue, really? As I dug deeper and made new discoveries, I found a tale a whole lot wilder than I\u2019d ever imagined\u2014a story of foreign intrigue, forbidden romance, and a man who might just have been playing everyone all along.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Man From Fifth Avenue<\/a><\/p>\n

Speaking of twists, this is one of the craziest stories I\u2019ve read recently. There are some people out there who put an insane amount of effort into being bad.<\/p>\n
