Before I suffered brain damage and stopped reading anything that didn't have the word 'manual' in the title, I would have loved this: Grey Lodge Occult Review. Issue number 10 just went online, with pieces by Korzybski, Artaud, Burroughs, Dick, Baudrillard, Huxley, Battaille, etc....

The NY Post’s Sean Delonas has produced some powerful political cartoons, mostly on the basis of sheer grotesquery rather than wit, like his famous image of Cuomo and Giuliani literally “in bed” together. But I thought this one was actually a good pun.

bird sighting

Wish I could post a picture, but I was going 65 mph at the time. I saw a pair of hawks (?) perched on a light pole in the middle of the US 101/ I-880 interchange. Very cool. Nice to know that some predators can coexist with us.

In an otherwise dry investment research report, someone cracks wise. Emphasis added.

With HDTV – where an upgrade to an HD signal would be required even if one were to remain with their existing service provider – the significance of that trigger is only amplified. Once a consumer decides to make the substantial investment in a new HD television set, they become acutely conscious of what they can display on it. (And highly aware that if they tell their wife they spent thousands on an HDTV set without having HD programming, they’ll be exposed as an idiot). It seems reasonable to expect that consumers will be disproportionately willing to switch providers to get best High Definition service for their new High Definition set.

"It should be clear to all by now that what we have in the Bush team is a faith-based administration. It launched a faith-based war in Iraq, on the basis of faith-based intelligence, with a faith-based plan for Iraqi reconstruction, supported by faith-based tax cuts to generate faith-based revenues. This group believes that what matters in politics and economics are conviction and will — not facts, social science or history.

Personally, I don't believe the Bush team will pay a long-term political price for its faith-based intelligence about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Too many Americans, including me, believe in their guts that removing Saddam was the right thing to do, even if the W.M.D. intel was wrong."


I agree with Friedman's point here. That is, that the supporting intelegence wasnt there and we (too many Americans including Friedman) dont fucking care. The challenge is to get across why we and he should care.

This Superbowl is really frustrating. I know I’m supposed to watch the commercials, but I keep ignoring them anyway.

All together now: Boohbah!

Some adult observers on both sides of the Atlantic are using such words as "bizarre," "trippy" and "psychedelic" to describe the show, whose visual elements were inspired by scientific photographs of microscopic life and cellular structures.
