Dave Geeting

Sometimes you see a photo that you just simply like. No pretentious bullshit/rule of thirds/photo composition blah blah blah blah blah. I just like this photo. A lot. Ok? Ok.

Garrison Keillor

As usual, Mr. Keillor puts it like no one else can:

Mr. Obama is a Chicago guy, and he doesn’t wilt if some gin-crazed cracker from South Carolina calls him a liar, so don’t trouble your pretty head about civility.

The right believes that if you throw enough mud, some will stick, and if you characterize healthcare reform as an evil plot by one-eyed space aliens, you can defeat the thing. The fact is that there are 40 million uninsured Americans and soon, if nothing is done, there will be more. This is a moral dilemma, the same as if habeas corpus only applied east of the Mississippi or that green-eyed children will only be educated through the sixth grade. Not acceptable in the country I live in. And it’s up to people who care about the common good not to be scared off.

Read the rest of his article, “The Right’s Middle-Finger Spirit Of Contrarianism”, here. Also, it’s good to have you back, sir.

The Deadly Syndrome: “I Hope I Become A Ghost”

One of the best songs from one of the best records of 2007 by one of the best bands around right now is now being featured in one of the funnier (yet truly fucked up) movies of 2009. Thanks to that timely placement in said film, said band’s singer (Jesse Hoy) has finally realized his vision for a video for said song with help from Al Romero/Hyrax Productions.

Confusingly written? I don’t care.

Mad Men: “Guy Walks Into An Advertising Agency”

At this point, if you’ve not been watching Mad Men, please go back and start from episode one, IF ONLY to grasp the entire context from the above image taken from this past Sunday evening’s episode.
