Christopher Hitchens Extremely Flexible

“What was Christopher Hitchens like?” I asked, trying to distract myself from the pain.
She thought for a moment. “He was … flexible.”
“Physically flexible?”
“Yes, that, but more mental. He is a big, handsome guy, but he has an open mind. When I have his legs in the air, we laugh about it. We talked about sensation. He made a lot of good questions.”

-Salon’s snappy commenters hate this story on waxing for men, but c’mon, that’s gold. And a very nice tribute to the man with no regrets.
