Macross 25: The future is now!

I almost forgot. Feb 7, 2009 was supposed to be the launch of the SDF-1. Until the space aliens, Zentradi, showed up and stopped that from happening.

Here’s to all that! Here’s to Lisa Hayes/Misa Hayase, Rick Hunter/Hikaru Ichiyo, Max Sterling/Jenius, Commander Gloval, Roy Fokker, and Lynn Minmay.

Deculture!

Quote of the Day [2.06.09]

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;

“The Second Coming,” William Butler Yeats

Paul Krugman today:"It's time for Mr. Obama to go on the offensive. Above all, he must not
shy away from pointing out that those who stand in the way of his plan,
in the name of a discredited economic philosophy, are putting the
nation's future at risk."I for one think the Democrats should be explaining to the nation how
deceptively evil Republican economic philosophy is. It's meant to
cripple government, but since government is the only entity that can get
us out of our current economic quagmire, it's meant to cripple the
nation, and by doing so destroy her. The dolts preach tax cuts in times of prosperity. They preach tax cuts
in times of trouble. The fucks preach tax cuts for almost anything.
Tax cuts will cure your cancer. They abhor government spending. Aren't we trapped in this terrible
economy because nobody wants to spend money on anything: businesses on
employees, consumers on goods, banks on their debt. But who's going to
do the spending now? Only the government can. It's capable of creating
the jobs just look at the fucks of the righ-wing noise machine. Without
government they'll only be howling about the weather.

My anger to this current affairs is because the Democrats and the
president should be shouting from the rooftops about the discredited
notions of Republican party. Eight fracking years and four before
Clinton should be enough to make the case. The president should, and
that's why this commity looking for bipartisanship is bogus. You
shouldn't be friends with people who are outright batshit crazy.http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/06/opinion/06krugman.html?partner=permali

Link of the Day [2.06.09]

Abe Lincoln was arguably the greatest president of the United States. He defeated those who wanted to destroy the Union, and placed the country on its path to greatness. If only the current president would defeat those who want to destroy the Union, then he would rise to the pantheon of those presidents who made the world a better place.

Read about the trials and tribulations of Lincoln as today’s link examines a few portraits of this great man.

Death for coffee

We all love coffee. We love it to death. So to celebrate, here’s a classic Lisa/Dave exchange from NewsRadio and the classic Titanic episode.

Dave: I realized that there were some things in life that you can’t find in the afterlife.
Lisa Miller: Like love?
Dave: No, coffee. Speaking of which, do you have any?
Lisa Miller: Love?
Dave: No, coffee.
Lisa Miller: No, I don’t. Sorry.
Dave: Well, then what’s the point?

Maybe you should just see the episode…
