Apparently, and I did not know this but my wife did, this is a fairly common practice. Still, unbelievably cool and one step closer to remade.

Comment on Wallstreet, Meet Lord Byron by John Powers

Mostly I feel like a deer in the headlights. I just saw a statistic that I found incredible: “By 1990, the value of the weapons, equipment, and factories devoted to the Department of Defense was 83% of the value of all plants and equipment in American manufacturing.” ~Chalmers Johnson at TomDispatch. The people I know take satisfaction from what they make and are creative. With much of of economy bent on destruction, no wonder we feel discouraged.

perhaps a bit over the top. i think the poet’s birthday got me going. but i have to say, the ironies and inconsistencies of our time – indeed any time that is “human” – are hope-consuming sometimes. did you catch the piece about the new city being built in Abu Dhabi – the world’s first “car free zero carbon walled city” sprung out of the desert on, well, oil profits? i wonder where the water supply will come from…

What a shocking image of butcher-doctors at the door. Clearly I agree the economy is in crisis. We need, the world needs, to find better ways to structure our economy. Stirling Newberry as a comment on his own post at The Agonist wrote: “Right now the international consensus is that the rich own the world and the rest of us just make trouble.” Always rather a dreamy sort, I’m proceeding with the premise that the rest of us can make something good.

I see the rainbow but seriously, its okay to play a bit now and then. The tsunami-to-ice-flow kinda threw me though… I’m actually looking forward to the next Bravia ad – any insights?
