Why Jon Stewart is still God

He's right. "That man is insane."

Over at my humble abode, I've posted a few Tweety rants. With this here crew now on the loose, things should really take off.

Do you think it was a joke there with misunderstanding the Nietzsche quote warning about looking into the abyss as a reference to the film "The Abyss"?

Also, I don't remember the story from Lawrence's battles with the Turks during WWI, but there's a very similar one about the Fall of Singapore in WWII. All the major artillery was in batteries defending the island against a seaborne attack, and couldn't be turned around to shell the approaching Japanese army coming down the Malay peninsula.
