Three Headed Dragon

If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea. - Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Daily Weird News

Once again, the Onion has the scoop:

• On the real story at Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch
• The food industry's reaction to the Atkins fad
• A negative accomplishment in rural America

Gun control gone wild? Talk about getting mid-evil on your ass in South Africa. Since regular people are not allowed to buy guns, they are resorting to swords, spears, cross-bow and pepper spray. I'm sure the NRA likes this as a case study the 'right to bear arms'.

Mexico has opened retirement homes for aging hookers. What will they think of next? Nobody needs to see that on the streets...

HST Overdrive's Favorite Quotes

Myths and legends die hard in America. We love them for the extra dimension they provide, the illusion of near-infinite possibility to erase the narrow confines of most men's reality. Weird heroes and mold-breaking champions exist as living proof to those who need it that the tyranny of "the rat race" is not yet final.

-- HUNTER S. THOMPSON, 1937-2005"

The moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance which no man could have dreamed would have come his way.

Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. Begin it now.

-- W.H.Murray
