Doesn't necessarily need to be political...


It is difficult to produce a television documentary that is both incisive and probing when every twelve minutes one is interrupted by twelve dancing rabbits singing about toilet paper.

Rod Serling (1924 - 1975)

Maybe the guy who created the commercial...
It doesn't seem that far fetched; in fact, seems pretty accurate

Saw this one in the paper today:

Not usually a fan of Wittgenstein, but I just read this and thought it sounded pretty good:

quote:

6.431: At death the world does not alter but comes to an end. 6.4311: Death is not an event in life: we do not live to experience death. If we take eternity to mean timelessness, then eternal life belongs to those who live in the present. Our life has no end in just the way in which our visual field has no limits. - Ludwig Wittgenstein, Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus
