First Ed McMahon. Then Farrah Fawcett. And wham, before anyone really had time to react to that news, Michael Jackson.

The Frogs excel at eating and sleeping. via Boston Herald. Mexicans have less fun. Though chicos have more fun than chiquitas. Koreans are the skinniest. I’m pretty sure they aren’t including North Korea, because forced starvation is not fair.
All fascinating though it sounds to me like the Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, which conducted this study of [...]

Leadership requires presence. People look to primeval, know-it-when-you-see-it evidence of authority.

Dear Jello,
You’re an adult now. Not like when you ran for mayor of San Francisco in 1979 and I cast my first vote for you, because I wasn’t quite an adult yet and neither were you, which is why your absurdist platform was so appealing.

Filed under Noble savages, elsewhere, western civilization.
“Uncontacted tribe” sounds mysterious and exotic until you read down a little and discover they already got the message about civilization and stamped it “return to sender.” Zoom in for the “Beware of poison darts” sign and “If this village’s rockin’, don’t come knockin’” bumper sticker.

I always thought that sounded a little oxymoronic, but Tigerhawk holds forth on the subject, counseling people not to be moronic. I’ll hoist a frosty mug to that, but I’d just like to comment that it sounds like Tigerhawk drinks a lot more than me, yet less. On that ingrained in western history part, by [...]
