Quick Change Artist

I enjoy watching Americas Got Talent- this couple is pretty good at this routine- maybe you can figure it out. Not sure if it should be filed under politics for how they change so quickly, or illusions of something that never happened? Let's file it under life, and just keep kicking the can down the road....Besides- I am tired of watching politicians and their games. Be Sure and Vote!

Andrei Sakharov (1921–) was a Soviet nuclear physicist and human rights activist awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1975 for opposing Soviet oppression. Sakharov worked on his memoirs in exile in Gorky, rewriting sections because they kept being seized by the government. Twice he reconstructed stolen parts, meaning that he wrote long stretches of the 1,400-page manuscript three times.
One day he met his wife, Yelena Bonner, at the train station and with trembling lips told her, “They stole it.”
She says he looked like a man who had just learned of the death of a close friend. But after a few days, Sakharov returned to his work. According to his wife, each time he rewrote his memoirs there was something new -- something better.
