Dragon....Dragoff

Is it just me or does departing Philadelphia mayor John Street look like Janosz from Ghostbusters II?


And speaking of GB2 lookalikes is that Fred Thompson?

Marriage

It seems like everyone is getting married later than our parents these days. As a kid, I always figured I'd be married with at least one kid at this point (I'm 27). I'm curious what the national average vs. the current average age is.
One of the reasons might be that people going to college incur so much debt coming out they are worried to start their married life with that debt. Another may be that divorce, especially for the breadwinner, can be devastating and the level of the divorce rate is so high in this country it may scare people off of matrimony. Many couples aren't even going through with marriage, but just skipping the whole deal.


Ah thats all I got to say today...

Why is it called a bachelor degree?

Fear

Fear is the most powerful force on Earth. It can cause humankind to commit any sort of heinous act in the name of safety. It also has the power to quiet, to quell, to placate a larger group. Many believe that to lead a nation to better times, there must be an enemy and if you look at America, we always had an enemy. Nazis, Japanese, the red scare, Saddam, Terrorists.

Unfortunately fear has been used against the American populace to shock or scare us into complicity with this administrations goals: greater censorship, a constant state of war, consolidated power, relinquished freedoms, faith-based initiatives, the degradation of secularism.

What are we scared of? What frightens America the most? Terrorism? Saddam? Iran? The nation of Islam? Foreigners? Illegal Immigration? Job loss? Atheists? Anthrax? Bird Flu? Mad Cow disease? My kid might fall down and hurt his widdle knee?

Are we safer? Were we ever in that much danger?

More people are killed in car accidents every month than in 9/11 total. Which country can we attack to stop that?

FDR was right. The ONLY thing we have to fear is fear itself.

Scare silly,
