It is given to some men (not exclusively 'men' but how much lesser chance do women have in a male dominated world?) to stand head and shoulders above all others - no matter their physical attributes - and be recognised (or not recognised, according to the perceptions of the times) as someone born, and gifted,...

An Exclusive Club Of Laughingstocks
I'm not even sure why this is 'news'. Who on Earth would want to join in with an exclusive club of laughingstocks?
