And to think - LA has been blaming that smell on the Salton Sea.

I THOUGHT the Neptune society was suppose to cremate you first. Not just pitch you over the side.

a lonely heart grows cold and old

Think it over what you just said
think it over in your pretty little head
are you sure that I'm not the one
is your love real or only fun
you think it over - yes, think it over
a lonely heart grows cold and old
Think it over and let me know
think it over but don't be slow
just remember all birds and bees
go by twos through life's mysteries
you think it over - yes, think it over
a lonely heart grows cold and old
Think it over and think of me
think it over and you will see
a happy day when you and I
think as one and kiss the blues goodbye
you think it over - yes, think it over
a lonely heart grows cold and old

i think the last time I had Spam was when I was pretending to be a surfer grub at Pipes (this was indeed long ago, when I was famous)

and who was it said only girls just wanna have fun?

Really, K? You simply must off-topic an existential thread with politics?

Where did the iconclastic vibe go?

uh, could this be Jean-Paul on Bepto-bismal?

“I am going to outlive myself. Eat, sleep, sleep, eat. Exist slowly, softly, like these trees, like a puddle of water, like the red bench in the streetcar.”

Did you ever wonder, what happens after you fought the law and the law won?

Where is fattrad, if not asleep, perchance dreaming of the STaco?

Lolli, hopefuly, you thrived & prospered, much nicer than mere existence.

And may we all exist forever young.

once somebody gets over the existential dilemma, is the next problem that of co-existence?

from: http://www.strategicstudiesinstitute.army.mil/pdffiles/pub585.pdf

**GETTING MAD:
NUCLEAR MUTUAL ASSURED DESTRUCTION,
ITS ORIGINS AND PRACTICE**

Nearly 40 years after the concept of finite deterrence was popularized
by the Johnson administration, nuclear Mutual Assured Destruction
(MAD) thinking appears to be in decline. The United States has rejected
the notion that threatening population centers with nuclear attacks is a
legitimate way to assure deterrence. Most recently, it withdrew from the
Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty, an agreement based on MAD. American
opposition to MAD also is reflected in the Bush administration’s desire to
develop smaller, more accurate nuclear weapons that would reduce the
number of innocent civilians killed in a nuclear strike.
