'World Tour?"
Words.
"...There’s a rumor that this Tupac “hologram” is going on tour, and that other such reincarnated artists — maybe a virtual John Lennon to sing duets with Paul McCartney — are in the works. But I hope it’s not true; the reanimated dead are never the people they were before. Oh, they sing the same, and rap the same, and have the same distinctive tattoos and hand gestures. But they don’t have the complexity, or the humanity, to really compel our interest. They’re ghosts — ghosts in a new machine, perhaps — but at best they are no more than the shadow of the shadows that they cast upon us, back when they were alive"

"Wastin' Away in Margaritaville."
A Moment of Clarity.
Words.
"...The most destructive force of all the attention on the Buffett Rule isn’t in the merits of either argument but rather the argument itself. It is taking away the most valuable commodity of all: time. Time that Congress, the White House and American economic leaders could better use in working to solve the much larger problems we collectively face.
...The GOP should work with Democrats, pass the bill and help America move forward.

Forget
millionaires, billionaires and so-called no tax pledges. The real
Buffett Rule bottom line is that all Americans are facing trillions of
dollars in real problems while Congress dithers over petty cash..."

"...Despite Coachella's reputation as being a soulless parade of people spending a week's income for the off chance of bumping into Kate Bosworth as well as a retrenchment of rock values, it's actually as listener-friendly as a behemoth rock festival could hope to be. In the past three years, the top-billing tripartite of new classic rock (Muse, Kings of Leon, Black Keys), artier kingpins (Gorillaz, Arcade Fire, Radiohead) and hip-hop (Jay, Kanye, Snoop and Dre) works. Maybe next year, they'll cave and just have Skrillex close it out. Or maybe LiveNation will use it to spur the historically disastrous sales of MDNA. Or even: "Hologram Biggie does Ready to Die live-- we have the technology!" Who the heck knows? But one thing is clear: Buying a pass to Coachella is something akin to investing in the ability for music to still deliver something close to a monoculture. It's winning framed as being too stubborn to lose."

"...America used to be a country that thought big about the future. Major
public projects, from the Erie Canal to the interstate highway system,
used to be a well-understood component of our national greatness.
Nowadays, however, the only big projects politicians are willing to
undertake — with expense no object — seem to be wars. Funny how that
works."

"HIDE YA KIDS! HIDE YA WIFE!"
Words.
"It’s raunchy, it’s ethnic and it’s probably happening on a university campus near you. It’s “Sissy Bounce” a form of erotic gyrating that has become the latest subculture “fad” among reckless kids looking for quick, cheap thrills. Any expert of family values will tell you that this trend is no laughing matter. It’s a foul, animalistic display that encourages children to act like monkeys, showing off their anal regions as if they were hunting for a partner in the jungle. If the “sissy bouncer” isn’t careful, he may very well end up with such a mate, a hardcore homosexual hellbent on violating to the very core of one’s body..."
