- Mom: I'm going to just cut your hair. Force you to get a haircut.
- Me: Like... while I'm sleeping. That's kind of creepy.
- Mom: Maybe when you're eating.
- Me: That isn't less creepy!

The Skeleton Dance (1929) (via dynovideoz)
“ By invading Iraq, Bush and the neocons gave three key gifts to al-Qaeda: they shifted U.S. military focus away from the Af-Pac border region where Osama bin Laden and other al-Qaeda leaders were hiding; eliminated al-Qaeda’s rival Saddam Hussein; and intensified anti-Americanism, which helped al-Qaeda recruit more suicide bombers.

Contempt for the Masses - a modern curse?
“For example, recall the era of the “Clinton Surplus?” Members of Congress salivated over spending it all on favored programs. Others promoted giant tax cuts, especially for the wealthy classes. Amid all of this, only two groups spoke up for using the surplus instead to retire the national debt. Those two groups were economists and … the general public.” via Contrary Brin
Busting Out The Joint
In mob parlance, as per Scorcese, “busting out” a restaurant or other business means buying supplies on credit, then stealing those supplies and leaving the business holding the bag. When the credit ceiling of the business is reached, the business is declared bankrupt and the creditors are stiffed. The mobsters, of course, walk away with all the supplies that were bought on credit and sell them off for a 100% profit. The beauty of the scam is that the business (and the business’ owners) are the ones stuck with the legal responsibility, while the creditors are stuck with the tab.
