Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Speaking of Joe the Plumber/War Correspondent:

I’ll be honest with you. I don’t think journalists should be anywhere allowed war. I mean, you guys report where our troops are at. You report what’s happening day to day. You make a big deal out of it. I think it’s asinine. You know, I liked back in World War I and World War II when you’d go to the theater and you’d see your troops on, you know, the screen and everyone would be real excited and happy for’em. Now everyone’s got an opinion and wants to downer–and down soldiers. You know, American soldiers or Israeli soldiers.

I think media should be abolished from, uh, you know, reporting. You know, war is hell. And if you’re gonna sit there and say, “Well look at this atrocity,” well you don’t know the whole story behind it half the time, so I think the media should have no business in it.

So how do you people feel about cilantro, muffalettas, serial commas, and cheetahs in a squash court?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

So how do you people feel about cilantro, muffalettas, serial commas, and cheetahs in a squash court?

Will there be people in sexy swimsuits?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You can almost acronym that as SPORC.

Sane People Offering Rational Compromise

We could have spork-shaped lapel pins and spork to death people who refuse to be rational.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

What religion was Superman?

Church of Rao.

I am a dork.

This Web site lists what (Earth-based) religions the various superheroes are. Superman is Methodist, which makes sense, since Ma and Pa Kent raised him in Kansas.

(I had NO idea Batwoman was Jewish. How did I miss that?)

Superman is Methodist, which makes sense, since Ma and Pa Kent raised him in Kansas.

And, as we all know, Methodists are bulletproof.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Oh, sure, on EARTH Superman's a Methodist.

But if he were on KRYPTON, aside from being radioactive and dead he'd worship Rao.
