Quote:
In societies formed on such foundations[despotic], when time and labor had developed riches, cupidity restrained by the laws, became more artful, but not less active. Under the mask of union and civil peace, it fomented in the bosom of every state an intestine war, in which the citizens, divided into contending corps of orders, classes, families, unremittingly struggled to appropriate to themselves, under the name of supreme power, the ability to plunder every thing, and render every thing subservient to the dictates of their passions; and this spirit of encroachment, disguised under all possible forms, but always the same in its object and motives, has never ceased to torment the nations.--C. F. Volney
Probably shit sideways if shown it today(100 plus years on) where it has been streamlined to a practice and may even be called an industry. Dark virtual satanic mills, Hoooo!
Stuff:
Red Cross get an hour with Kyi. Not starving. Still locked out of playground by the local bullies.
An end to the dream? The island of lost souls may change from; Republic of China to Taiwan. Chung Kuo Distopian Countdown Clock moved back 2 minutes.
Colin Powell on easing of spat with NK. Cluephone repair guy must have shown up. Or is it just a return to goodcop/badcop with Rumsfeld.
Speaking of Rummy he's still spinning and hand jivin' out and about. Why am I reminded of a scene in [MAG]? More American Graffiti
The Kelly's take a new swipe at Tony Blair. Got my foam #1(zero in crayon) hand ready to point down and a StrongBad cap on. Flame at will, Mrs. Kelly! Fight! Burn! Waaah![Welsh Football Fan voice].
BBC with FirstEnergy item, "We have no clue. Our computer is giving us fits. We don't even know the status of some of the stuff around us." Not a big geek crowd in that company obviously.
Tom Tomorrow is still snarking about Snopes.
A very funny comic. The blue hat guy is perfect.
Which leads in to this Bush on TV item. And thus on to the toon where the Cupids may get very busy this week...
Texttoon:
Etched Copperplate on common ragpaper: Cupids with scroll* return from [#41306] forming the backdrop. At the end of the line in the foreground is a Cupid with topless cap being pushed up by a pencil. He is looking at small pad of paper and has a bubble; "You are the Prime Minister! That's the problem. We'd have to make a whole new scroll for that!" to a waiting Abbas who has a bubble saying; "Oh, will it take long? I'm in a hurry."
*recap for lazyclickers: Oversized scroll held up by flying Cupids with stock script for resigning. A line of officials(UK, US) wait to read it out one by one. "I your name here regret that I have only one position to resign for my president." Paper strip extra glued to the scroll with "Prime Minister" half over the last word.
Best. Textoon. Evar. (Score:2)
