Silliy and not so silly
Silly... QOTD
“... climate change is an unambiguous security threat. At the extreme it threatens our very existence. But well before that point, it could well incite new wars of an old kind over basic resources – like food, water and arable land.”And not so silly... QOTD2
- Hillary Clinton at her Sec of State confirmation
"The rating (for the U.S.) was affirmed despite our judgment that fiscal risk has noticeably increased as we expect that the fiscal deterioration will be temporary."Temporary fiscal deterioration. Gulp.
- S&P comment on the United States' AAA credit quality rating
We see treasuries down-graded from AAA by S&P... then I'll start paying attention to the "sky is falling" blogs and such. Gulp gulp.
chicken little... yow, bill
PS - "Chicken Little" is a surprisingly good movie. Review: 4 bill-stars (out of 5). Plus, they cast Joan Cusack as the ugly duckling, and she's quite good, actually. I want to be at that meeting though: "Joan, we want you to be the ugly duckling in our movie." And Joan Cusack's back straightens, "What the hell did you just say to me!" He he.
