Malthus and HisMajestyBob, I'm looking at you.

You planning on taking Malthus clubbing in Seoul some time?
I found a cool monograph on the feedback loop style relationship between the rise of Empires and Nomadic Confederations along the ecological boundary separating agricultural settlements and nomads.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.

Yaweh is spoiling all my fun.   :(
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

At the supermarket checkout behind me today.

An old dude with a beard like this (only white and with stubbly chin):


Under this kind of jacket:


... he wore a jeans shirt with a bolo tie and a "TEXAS" baseball cap with three or four Texas state flag pins. He bought a frozen black forest cake and coffee creamer.

If I had had my cell phone with me I would have made pictures.

Somewhere in Texas there is a dude who goes to the supermarket all decked out in tracht with an 'Osterreich' arm patch.
