More Than Meets the Eye

The opening of Michael Bay's latest Transformers movie provides an excuse for me to watch the best Transformers movie of them all: the 1986 animated feature. I can say without equivocation that I was never more excited for anything than I was to see this movie when it finally arrived in theaters. I was not disappointed. Just look at that cast! Audiences had waited for so long to hear Orson Welles paired with Judd Nelson! I own this version on DVD and if you have never seen it, I can assure you this one surpasses the Bay movies in plot and performance.

Let's do it again!
Things I learned from Fox News (specifically, from Fox News contributor Stuart Varney):

September 2010
The rich pay too much in taxes. It's not moral.





June 2011
The poor don't pay enough taxes. The EIC is "corrupt," "a scandal," "a welfare scheme."

Between Sarah Palin's tweets and this guy's crotch shots, I'm beginning to think that social media will bring about the downfall of civilization. For the last few minutes I've been trying to formulate some rules for public figures using social media, but none of them capture this situation. I think the one rule that needs to be followed at all times is, "Don't do (or say) stupid shit." But if you do, don't lie about it.
