Human Swastika

Warsaw_ghetto Josef Blösche was a Nazi war criminal who held the rank of SS-Rottenführer. Born in Friedland in Austria-Hungary, Blösche began his life working as a farmhand and a waiter at his father's hotel. After Nazi Germany took over the Sudetenland, Blösche became a willing servant of the regime.

In September 1941, he began serving as a guard at the Warsaw Ghetto and was in charge of the wooden bridge between Warsaw and the ghetto. He became known as "Frankenstein" for his monstrous behavior. Here he is on the right of this famous photograph...

Happy Loving Day

Black_and_white_in_color On June 12th, 1967, interracial couples became legal thanks to the Supreme Court decision entitled Loving v. Virginia. Before that date, states had the right to separate and punish interracial couples. These punishments included imprisonment of up to ten years. Violations included marriage, sex, and living together. This issue is a part of the civil rights movement that is too often forgotten. On June 12th of every year, celebrate your legal right to love a person of any race

All patrons of the Hypnosis Restaurant would agree to be hypnotized before dining. Obviously this would make the food taste better and the service would appear spectacular. The hypnosis would all be above board and voluntary. And for liability reasons the restaurant would record everything that happens with security cameras and get signed releases

Sprint Feet

Nut_protector In most respects, he’s your typical triathlete. But Scott Rigsby has higher motivations than just winning medals, reaching personal goals, and enjoying the triathlon lifestyle. He is looking to do what no one else ever has done, and in the process, pave the way for others to follow. The 38-year-old Georgia native has already knocked down one wall, becoming the first double leg amputee to complete an Olympic distance triathlon while running on prosthetics. Next on the list is a Half Ironman in October, and the ultimate, a full Ironman next June. (From Stuart Hughes)

There but for the grace of God

10/24/06 update: It seems that both polls disappeared from the face of the earth. Too bad! There were about 300 surprising results last I looked.

The Cached version:

You stop your shiny car at a Freeway ramp. A disheveled, sickly-looking old man in a broken wheelchair holds a piece of cardboard in his lap and sadly looks you straight in the eye. Do you?

- Turn your gaze to the other side and wait for the light to change, as you discretely lock the car doors

- Mumble thru the rolled-up window that you are sorry

- Search for some coins inside the cup holder

- Give him a few dollars

- Say a little prayer as you drive away

- Curse a cruel God

- Swear at a heartless system that allows its weakest members to go hungry

- Hope that you will not end up on the same spot when you are his age

- Anything else?

Worst movie of the year award

Worst_movie_ever Last night I went to see a new movie. Usually, I try not to bring up negative experiences, but this movie was so terrible, that I feel I have to “go public” with it. Actually, I would go so far as to say that this was the worst movie I ever saw...

When I studied cinema in the early eighties, I kept a log of all the movies I watched. During that time I would see over 500 movies a year. But in recent times, I go to the cinema very seldom, maybe once every 4-5 months. (Living in Riverside doesn’t help, being that the city has 3-4 multiplexes which only play the latest Hollywood hits.) One or two more viewing of crap like this, and I’m going to stop going out all together.

Anyway, Barry Levinson directed a few good movies (Diner, Tin Men, Rain man) in the past. Robin Williams was mildly entertaining when he was younger (Cadillac Man and The Fisher King come to mind), and Lewis Black seems to be kind of funny when you watch his spasmodic rants on that Jon Stewart Show. I even linked to the trailer of this movie a couple of months ago, because it kind of looked interesting. What a let down! If you were thinking of spending $10 to see this trite pseudo-political pretense of a movie, please do not. Repeat: Please do not go & see this piece of trash.
