Quote of the Day [11.14.08]

I cherish the twilight
I maximize, my soul is the right size
I watch for the power to run out on the moon
(And that'll be sometime soon)De la Soul, "I am. I be"

Greed kills.

This article is pretty much a damnation of the wizards on Wall Street. They don’t know what they’re selling. We don’t know what we’re buying. We’re all dead in the long run.

I remember my one and only business class during my grad school studies. It was a class about ethics in business and it was filled with nothing but finance folks. They took the view that the bottom line was the first thing that mattered for a business. They didn’t out right ignore the need for ethical entrepeneurship, but they didn’t think that it was worthwhile. I took this class at the end of 2007. I wonder what happened to their world view.

You just can’t get enough of our president elect.

And you just can’t get enough of eight bit sound tracks.

Here’s a really stupid flash game that makes the future feel like the past and the present a moment in time. At least it has the eight bit sound track.

“A few months ago, I told the American people I did not trade arms for hostages. My heart and my best intentions still tell me that’s true. But the facts and the evidence tell me it is not.”

There’s no point in asking us you’ll get no reply
I just steam in but I don’t decide
I got no reason it’s all too much
you’ll always find us
Out to lunch!
We’re so pretty oh so pretty vacant
We’re so pretty oh so pretty vacant
