Today's quote Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself. Leo Tolstoy
Look at titles in bookstores. Seems to me that in America nobody thinks of changing the world. Everybody tries to change themselves. And fails.
A dark century after Tolstoy's.

Jumping the waves

Howard Stern has started a series of good bye shows. He is going in a space devoid of gravity. He used to impress me with his sense of humor, with his lack of respect for stupidity. Twenty years ago I could not figure out if he was in control or crazy. Loved him.
In his own, more recent world of strippers he lost most of his sense of humor and thinks his exile is due to censorship.
He goes for a space where uttering obscenities is taken for sense of humor.

the tooth faery

Does the tooth faery exist? This is what the politician seem to discuss when they talk about the administration lying about WMD in Iraq.
Every man on the street knows that this is a war for oil, a pretext to have an army in the Middle East, a war against the Muslim world. But some politicos talk like they did not know. Poor innocent politicos. More dishonest than Bush himself.
