There are fifteen five-star reviews of The Ballad of Carl Drega at Amazon. Not one reviewer gives it less than five stars. Creepy as hell.
"The badge that saved Wayne’s life is on display in Concord now."
So that's why they call it a shield. Damn.
The biggest issues of our time are all, directly or indirectly, environmental issues. Real solutions to the major envronmental problems will require concerted and enlightened applications of science and technology.
Bush has, by far, the worst environmental record of any president in U.S. history. His has also been the worst of any modern administration on science/tech/R&D. His administration has been actively hostile to science, almost across the board.
And we have not even mentioned the liberties taken with the Constitution.
Trent Reznor should sue. The new slogan was ripp'd untimely from one of his songs (Yes, the following quotation is longer than permitted by fair use, but given that TR's releasing all of his current stuff under a Creative Commons license, I don't think he'd object.)
God money I'll do anything for you.
God money just tell me what you want me to.
God money nail me up against the wall.
God money don't want everything he wants it all.
No you can't take it
No you can't take it
No you can't take that away from me
No you can't take it
No you can't take it
No you can't take that away from me
Head like a hole.
Black as your soul.
I'd rather die than give you control.
Head like a hole.
Black as your soul.
I'd rather die than give you control.
Bow down before the one you serve.
You're going to get what you deserve.
Bow down before the one you serve.
You're going to get what you deserve.
God money's not looking for the cure.
God money's not concerned with the sick among the pure.
God money lets go dancing on the backs of the bruised.
God money's not one to choose
No you can't take it
No you can't take it
No you can't take that away from me
No you can't take it
No you can't take it
No you can't take that away from me
Head like a hole.
Black as your soul.
I'd rather die than give you control.
Head like a hole.
Black as your soul.
I'd rather die than give you control.
Bow down before the one you serve.
You're going to get what you deserve.
Bow down before the one you serve.
You're going to get what you deserve.
