Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

America's sustained competitive advantage stems from our vast natural resources and our freedoms. Of the two our freedoms are by far the most important and irreplaceable. And we are chipping away at the bedrock of our freedoms - sometimes it seems with sledgehammers... No need to call me Lord... Peter Gabriel's first choice for the female lead on the song Don't Give Up wasn't Kate Bush - it was Dolly Parton! Just another example of how legendary Dolly is... Sadly this is true!... Time to dust off my Ben Ben Theory. I have a theory that if you substituted Ben Stiller for Ben Affleck and vice versa in any of their movies - the movie would automatically become much more interesting to watch... You may be cool but you'll never be as cool as Debbie Harry lounging in her New York apartment under an Andy Warhol portrait of herself...

  2. Affleck in Dodgeball or Zoolander.

    Stiller as Batman or Argo.

    Come on - tell me you wouldn't want to see how they both would do in those switcheroos.
