The working class of England take their deracination completely for granted. Disenchantment is the happy code that informs every byway of the underclass: service jobs, celebrity dreams, Lotto wins, leisured poverty on pre-crunch credit cards, it's all there, part of the story of an English people whose grandparents never had it so good.
Mystical groups such as the Theosophical Society and the Rosicrucians turned tarot into an American fad during the early 1900s.

We know more about our credit cards than we know about our bodies.
I have more faith in doing something creative for a cable station or something like Yahoo or Google or Amazon. What Netflix did with 'House of Cards' and David Fincher was brilliant.

Because people have no thoughts to deal in, they deal cards, and try and win one another's money. Idiots!
I know some people might think it odd - unworthy even - for me to have written a cookbook, but I make no apologies. The U.S. poet laureate Billy Collins thought I had demeaned myself by writing poetry for Hallmark Cards, but I am the people's poet so I write for the people.
If Marxist theory dictates that the personal is always political, the rebuttal of both 'The Americans' and 'House of Cards' is that the political is always personal: the sum total of our collective needs and desires, vows and betrayals.

And as long as you maintain an on-time payment history, they can help you start to build a recent credit history that's fairly pristine.
Life is not a matter of holding good cards, but sometimes, playing a poor hand well.
