On Vox: Doonesbury: Still Awesome

http://www.doonesbury.com/strip/dailydose/index.html?uc_full_date=20071230

Money line, "Flood the Catacombs!"

I suppose one might credit Doonesbury for a large chunk of my initial understanding of American politics (as I didn't really pay much attention to American news until I started caring that Bill Clinton was the president as he was the coolest politician who ever appeared on the Arsenio Hall show) [Woof Woof Woof]

I still like Clinton (less and less every year, but he seems to slide further and further to the right all the time)  I dislike Hilary as she seems to dislike all the stuff I like (Video Games, Violent Movies, Reading, Free Thought)

I'm a Mike Gravel booster as of right now, but we'll see whom I support after the shakedowns over the next few months.  If not Gravel, I'm hoping for Obama, whom appears to be just the right age to really provide energetic leadership to the US.

However, if he doesn't produce something like this:

Then all bets are off….

On Vox: Vox Hunt: Singing A Holiday Tune


Share your favorite holiday song.

This is really a toss-up, but both involve artists from Great Britain:

Little Drummer Boy / Peace on Earth; as sung by Bing and Bowie.  This one always reminds me of my early Christmases in North America, and the great surprises and excitement that accompanied those Christmas mornings.

Band Aid - Do They Know it's Christmas?  "Feed the Wooooo-ooorld, Let them know it's Christmas Time"  The conceit is strange, especially with Islam being such a huge faith in the affected areas at the time, but their hearts were in the right place.  Nowadays I much more of a cynic about such affairs, but I still think fondly of all the little pyramids of pennies I gave for the babies in Africa who needed them more than I needed a new GiJoe.

This man has an annoying voice, but it hides an inventive mind. Way to think outside the paradigm or something… LoL.

This looks simple, why has this been so hard to implement thus far?
