Oh Superman, where are you now?

Flashback of the day: Ronald Reagan, wife Nancy, and a chimp in bed together... and that's the most sane part of this music video! (Embedding is disabled, alas. You'll have to click!) I wish the quality was a little better, but with things from the 80s it's generally a little low.

It's quite a catchy song, and the images are really well done. Save us, president Reagan in a Superman cape riding a dinosaur!

The stupid wins again... (TV)

Fricking reality shows that are popularity contests. The winner of last year's Big Brother couldn't tell time with a non-digital clock. More than that, she does not understand how "quarters" work. "It's a quarter to two o'clock", etc. When asked how many quarters were in an hour, she didn't know. When asked how many were in a dollar, she guessed eight. But she was pretty, blonde, and popular, and so she won.

Tonight's winner (who I won't name in case anyone doesn't want spoilers), said of evolution: "Evolution can't be real because I ain't got no fur on my face like a monkey does". So, your proof that a theory that says things change over time is wrong is that... something changed over time. But he's a traditionally handsome, young, popular guy, so he won.

Blah. Just blah.
