"I was on a cruise ship in 1998 that hit rocks. You know how the Titanic hit an iceberg? Well we hit rocks. The captain was a Norwegian gentleman. The Norwegians have a rich sailing tradition dating back to the time of the Vikings. Except we got the guy who hits rocks. The captain came over the intercom and said, 'Ladies and gentlemen, I want you to know that the ship is indeed taking on a little waaaaderr'...Taking on a little water - you mean we're SINKING! A crew member carrying a case of Avion on board, THAT'S taking on a little water!"

- The late, great John Pinette

After the flagellation, while his livid flesh was swelling under the bloody lashes, the image of Claudia would leap before his eyes. Claudia nude, quivering, seductive, offering the mortal caresses of Cleopatra!

from The Cardinal's Mistress, a pornographic novel by Benito Mussolini

The neck of the cavalry-man with the bullet through and through I examine,
Hard the breathing rattles, quite glazed already the eye, yet life struggles hard,
(Come sweet death! be persuaded O beautiful death!
In mercy come quickly.)

"Profits are what you make when NOT working."

- Michael Parenti

(This quote came to mind after seeing a recent article that calculated that Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon, currently makes over 4 million dollars per HOUR. Per hour. Just let that sink in a minute. This is the same guy who won't pay to have air conditioning in his shipping warehouses, and parks ambulances outside so that when employees collapse from heat stroke they can be taken to the ER. It's cheaper to let employees collapse from the heat than it is to properly cool them while making $12.00 an hour working a ten-hour shift. Please remember that nobody earns 4 million dollars an hour. They merely collect it from the labor of the thousands who generate it.)

Do I really need to explain what's wrong with Capitalism?

The Western liberal democracies are the best societies that have ever existed … Citizens of these societies are, on aggregate, the most fortunate people who have ever lived. Almost everyone in the West lives a quality and length of life which would have been the envy of a pharoah or a Roman emperor and which most of our ancestors, and most of the populations of the rest of the world, would swap for their own prospects in an eye blink.
