spin alley

Wherever there is a big candidates' debate there is Spin Alley. After the debate, journalists have to write stories, produce TV packages. For this they need quotes and authorized knowers who can talk on camera.


There to provide such are the spinners: hired guns, stand-ins, soulmates who agree to meet the press after the debate to explain why their candidate "won." Of course this is a verdict known in advance; however that fact too is known in advance, so no one really minds. Spin Alley will live again in whatever large, air-conditioned room is next designated for the ritual. Unless it's stopped.
After the debate, I took the press shuttle back to the media center -- and to the small section therein blatantly designated "Spin Alley," ringed on three sides by bare-bones makeshift broadcast platforms and stuffed to capacity with reporters, camera crews and politicos. Everywhere you looked there were clusters of media people surrounding spinners and surrogates, whose names were printed on laminated red signs held high above the crowd by aides. I felt like I was standing in the middle of one of my own damn cartoons come to life.

Spicy Dick

After handling peppers or other extremely hot substances, using the restroom without thuroughly washing your hands in between. A very painful affair.

shinya hiragi

Shinya Hiragi is a very compassionate man that deserves everything. He has blue, sparkling diamond eyes that reflects off of every little beam of light it hits, nearly blinding everyone near him. This gentleman has silver flowing hair, you could identify every strand of hair. Standing with the height of 6 feet, his body and face so proportional it amazes cosmetic surgeons leaving them in the depths of confusion. With a very healthy stunning posture; with every step he takes, everyone and in the room stops and gazes towards his direction. His voice so soft and angelic, every word he says is like gold. Everyone treats him like royalty, perhaps even like god. He's an intellectual, he has the confidence has, not even celebrities could relate to him.
Shinya Hiragi is such an amazing person, how could you not treat him like royalty?
