Revenge (feat. Wayne Coyne) by Sparklehorse

Ever since the wife lobbied for this on Monday of last week, I’ve been on a bit of a bender.

This gem with Wayne Coyne and Dangermouse has got me hooked hard. Such a beautifully sad song.

“

I want to know if my hair is just like yours,” he told Mr. Obama

Mr. Obama replied, “Why don’t you touch it and see for yourself?”

He lowered his head, level with Jacob, who hesitated. “Touch it, dude!” Mr. Obama said.

“So, what do you think?” Mr. Obama asked.

“Yes, it does feel the same,” Jacob said.

- wow

“When I look at Kickstarter, I see small businesses that have been funded by their customers. I see the acceleration of this shift away from the industrial manufacturing ideology to more of a maker economy. And I also see an idea so powerful that the company name has become a verb.”

“When you’re president, as opposed to the head of a private equity firm, then your job is not simply to maximize profits. Your job is to figure out how everybody in the country has a fair shot… And so if your main argument for how to grow the economy is ‘I knew how to make a lot of money for investors,’ then you’re missing what this job is about.”
