Charlie just *happens* to mention that he "does not love lies", just minutes after SA accuses him of doing so, and then has to point out that he was not responding to SA (because, of course, SA is presumably on his Ignore List).

 Annasophia Robb - Charlie and the Chocolate Factory / Winn dixie

No wonder poor Charlie (the wonderful Freddie Highmore, one of Depp's J.M. Barrie boys in Finding Neverland) is so relieved to be back with his squalid family in their squalid, loving hovel with its leaking, old-horse's-back roof, crouched in the shadow of the ominous candy factory.

 Springhouse Magazine Online - Volume 7, Number 4 - August 1990 Out of Print Issue - Charles "Blackie" Harris ...
Polite, meticulous, full of years, full of laughter, full of stories big on mistakes, false friends and hairbreath escapes -this is how I remember Charles Bryan "Blackie" Harris.
Modestly assessing his turbulent career for a newspaper reporter, Harris once said he was "the most overrated gangster in the world," and probably said it with sincerity enough to disarm a cynic, especially if that cynic had not read a southern Illinois newspaper for the last 40 years.
And besides, the two had played on a wagon tongue when they and the century were young, the obvious conclusion being 'Now who would shoot a boyhood chum?' That was Charlie's way, always bringing in a homey incident to sidetrack anyone prying for information.

Don Watson's book is a polemic that rails against a certain kind of obfuscated public language; his introduction calls it "the language of leaders more than the led, managers rather than the managed".
His principal argument is that poor business writing, especially the jargon of management, marketing and human resources, has corrupted that of political life and other fields, especially academia.
He castigates turgid jargon-ridden prose such as "identify major change drivers impacting on the sectors", "penetration, development and expansion of the vertical market segment and strategic close of high impact deals" or "an exigency to restrict dissemination of this publication to professional end-users and institutions only".

 Robert Frank, "The Americans"
But it did not often, i think, make the viewer feel so implicitly involved in a photograph that he saw himself talking or relating to a photographic subject in such a normal, unrestrained way; Frank removed the idea of the "other", the sense that the people in photographs were unapproachable.
My use of the word "routine" is in the context that he used his family background as a means to justify his attack on "political correctness".
Charlie occasionally does comes off as slightly odd, but nowhere near as absurd as a number of the whites surrounding him, with their ignorance, stupidity, greed, etc. Charlie remains polite (but never fawning), insightful, quick-witted, cool and decisive.

Gerry Mulligan may get credit for inventing the so-called pianoless quartet in modern jazz but it was Ornette Coleman's Free Jazz band of the early 1960s that really established it as a viable aggregation.
Having ingenious soloists like cornettist Don Cherry, bassist Charlie Haden and drummer Ed Blackwell on board, Coleman on his Atlantic LPs proved that lacking a chordal instrument did nothing to weaken a band's internal dynamics, as long as the mixture of talent and compositions was maintained.
Forty years on, this sound is as familiar as that of a classical string quartet or a rock Power Trio, with literally thousands of groups having embraced it.

An apartment of girls, all friends of Al Merten, two blocks away from my apartment in Georgetown, became a good escape from the politics of swapping equipment, memorizing formulas, and crash learning little bits of trivial information without which it was impossible to use the mainframe computers.
