Do you know how fast you were going? Fang looked at the speedometer...No, he said truthfully. I tagged you at seventy miles per hour,she said, pulling out a clipboard. I let out an impressed whistle. Excellent! I never thought we'd be that fast. Fang shot me a look and I put my hand over my mouth.

You lay your hand against his skin and just rib his back. Blow into his ear. Press that baby up against your own skin and walk outside with him, where the night air will sourround him, and moonlight fall on his face. Whistle, maybe. Dance. Hum. Pray. (how to calm a crying baby)

It was a perfect night for a train. The occasional whistle told Louis of all the farewells he had ever known.

The many pro-surveillance advocates I have debated since Snowden blew the whistle have been quick to echo [Google CEO] Eric Schmidt's view that privacy is for people who have something to hide. But none of them would willingly give me the passwords to their email accounts, or allow video cameras in their homes.
