This is an example of american brilliance.

This is why people left for north america a zillion years ago to get away from the fools... Can I come back? I think they followed me here.


Today's Song of the Day is "Concerto Grosso Op. 6 No. 10 in D Minor: i. Overture" Performed by Capella Istropolitana, Conducted by Josef Kopelman, Composed by George Frideric Handel in 1739.

Crazy Fact: He fought a duel with the composer Matheson over the accompaniment to one of Matheson’s operas. Wow!

Dude, you have to check out the Stephen Colbert interview on onegoodmove.org, the one with the red-haired guy whose name I always forget. O'brien?

Stephen Colbert could win Geek Idol 2006.

Speaking of Communism...

Check out The Life of the Others, it's a film about how unfabulous it was in communist Germany. We watched it last night at a lovely outdoor theatre in Kreutzberg, drinking beer and wine, eating peanuts, and sitting in lawnchairs.

The QoC says it's very realistic. It was also shot all around our little apartment, haha. And as a darker note, the actor who plays the Stasi agent was in real-life spied on by his wife for the Stasi in the DDR. That, my friends, is a hell of a crazy fact.

I know communism could be a good thing. I like to think of myself as a democratic socialist. But really, oddly, I'm kindof a capitalist with social-safety-net flavour. Not that I seem to eager to use such a thing... har har.

Ah, I don't think you guys are communists. :-P I mean that as a complement, haha!
