A collection of thoughts and asides about life. And if I think of anything that needs to be mocked, it will show up here.
"If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way."
--Bertrand Russell
I have been jokingly referring to our President as "Obamessiah" because so many people believe that only he can save this country. And many of those believers are media types. This is not the first time I have seen this subliminal imagery--Obama with a halo--and I'm sure it won't be the last. So, from this Reuters story on Yahoo, a picture I have renamed "Obamessiah."
