Notes from the birthday list
1. The Picture Slot. Last year, it was Agnes Moorehead and this year, it's Nick Park represented by his greatest creations, Wallace and Gromit. Next year, I am not sure, but looking for iconic, I'd say Colin Salmon from Doctor Who, JoBeth Williams from Poltergeist, Patrick Bachau from Carnivale and maybe Wally Cox from Twilight Zone are the most likely.
2. Spot the Canadians! There are four and if you know the shows from both the 20th and 21st Century, it shouldn't be hard to find them.
Many happy returns to all the living on the list and to the dead, thanks for all the memories.
Movie released
Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country released, 1991
Prediction: It is against brotherhood that millionaires and starving men and women should coexist in society. Hence I regard our present social system as doomed to collapse - as other systems have collapsed which were open to the same criticism.
Society should be organized for the production of wealth with the least possible expenditure of human energy and with the brotherly distribution of wealth produced.
In the society of the future, it seems to me that the sexes will co-operate for mutual service. Each will bring its special powers to the help of the race, without artificial restrictions on either. In the future, a marriage entered into without intellectual and moral affinities will be condemned as prostitution is now. And marriage will be permanent, as intellectual and moral character are permanent.
In this future society, brutal crime will have disappeared. Subtler evils will be met with brotherly compassion, not by vindictive penalty. Temperance legislation will be unknown because drunkenness will be as impossible as the readoption of the woad garments of our ancestors.
Reality: Umm, yeah.... no. Billionaires and starving men coexist, human energy is not at its least possible expenditure though it often paid as little as possible, marriages aren't permanent (Ms. Besant's wasn't, she divorced Mr. Besant after six years of marriage in 1873), and after drinking four pints on Thursday night when two would have been much more prudent, I can say with confidence that drunkenness is not impossible, though I certainly wish it was.
Looking one day ahead... INTO THE FUTURE!
December will be the final month of our nuclear holocaust Sundays, so enjoy the weekly conflagration, destruction and pestilence while you can. Hardcore fans of conflagration, destruction and pestilence on Sundays will still have the NFL playoffs for another month after.
Join us then... IN THE FUTURE!
