nice.

Gran Turismo 5 trailer from E3. The images are so beautiful and alive. It's just hard to believe this is from a video game. Just... wow.

neat but I wonder how well it will hold up for group play, especially in environments not optimized for sweet promo videos. Things like backgrounds, dim lights and strong shadows might make it a lot less awesome in real life. Regardless, this is some fairly remarkable technology in action.

War is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of the people. Only a small 'inside' group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many. Out of war a few people make huge fortunes."

got damn. holy mackerel that man can spit.

"here's a smidget of midgets to get ya digits, bridget, don't try to fidget, widget. ribbit. ribbit."
