Oh, one more thing on economics-- like a lot of people, I'm not that excited about Obama's stimulus package. An attempt at bipartisanship is all nice and wonderful but now, more than ever, is the time where the initiative should be taken and we should say screw that and once and for all, take an aluminum baseball bat to Reaganesque conservative economic and social theory and smash it into little, tiny bits. And then bash on it some more so that it's nothing but teeny-tiny little bits and pieces, bits and pieces that will then be thrown into a huge bonfire so there's nothing left of it but one giant, pulverized ash heap. And what should we do with that ash heap? Put it one of those vases people put the ashes of their cremated relatives and throw it into the ocean and let the fish eat it.

This will all be done in an environmentally conscious way, of course.
