It’s what the aliens tell the Woody Allen character in Stardust Memories. ... I think that’s about the extent of my philosophical insights. ... As the beloved LOL related, Bob Hope was with the marines on some Pacific hell hole, and a marine for one reason or another had failed to encounter the enemy, which he really desired to do. So he cries out “Hirohito stinks!” ... Whereupon the enemy steps forward and shouts back “Roosevelt stinks!” ... The Marine is stymied, complaining “I can’t kill a fellow Republican!” ...

11/18. On a tragic
note, the stupid movie Avengers:
Infinity War
really sux;
everybody dies
in the end. Actually, only a
random half
of the people in the galaxy die. The spider
kid dies! ... Don’t
show it to children. Or adults.
... Apparently the 
sensitive
æthetes
were so stricken by the catastrophic USA election they rent their
plots.
Perhaps
there’ll be a sequel where a strangely-infirm
elderly-but-pretends-otherwise heroic gurl will rally the remaining
avengers and somehow resurrect half of the galaxy, through kindly

... “I’m afraid ... the counter we provide on
counter.dreamhost.com hasn’t been updated since around 2007, so it
