She never begins an attack, nor, when once engaged, ever surrenders: She is therefore an emblem of magnanimity and true courage. ... she never wounds 'till she has generously given notice, even to her enemy, and cautioned him against the danger of treading on her.

Shark Condition: Jumped

I think it's safe to say that we're well past the point of grasping at straws. Via HuffPo:

Federal officials are hoping film director James Cameron can help them come up with ideas on how to stop the disastrous oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.


I'm decently offended by this, being such a Star Wars fan. I mean, why the hell didn't George Lucas get a phone call between the Challenger or Columbia disasters? No one called Michael Mann after Columbine.

Seriously. Read the whole thing. We're officially in an alternate universe. Someone call Tom Stranger.

  1. Perhaps they were hoping to block the hole with Mr. Cameron's over-large ego, and spare us the horror of having another hippie-fest like Avatar foisted upon us?

Feel free to drop a line. You don't have to keep it clean - God knows, I won't - but keep it above the belt.
