And I'll be honest with you, my first thought was... That's how I want to go. Having the time of your life, "whoo hoo!" FOOM.

From The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
Carlton: "See, the grasshopper goofed off, while the ant worked hard storing up food for the winter. When the winter came, the ant had food, but the grasshopper starved to death. You know what the moral of the story is?"
William: "Yep. Even if we were insects, I'd be bigger than you."
From Futurama
Fry: "It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long, the grasshopper kept burying acorns for the winter, while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV. But then the winter came, and the grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns. And also he got a racecar. Is any of this getting through to you?"
From The Big Bang Theory
Leonard: "Hey, pal. You didn't see me telling Kevin that you thought cold war was only fought in winter."
From The Red Green Show
Red Green: "It is winter. Cousin Jerry was lying in the snow making snow angels. Along came the snowplow. Now Cousin Jerry is making REAL angels."

02 Mar 2013—
The US government has a Whistleblower Protection Act, but this podcast recounts multiple cases where people who blew the whistle on the illegal and unethical activities of the American empire have been ruthlessly punished or prosecuted. ~~ Then Glen Greenwald gives a speech titled "Challenging the US Surveillance State." He begins by reviewing the evidence that all US administrations have systematically abused their technological ability to listen in on US citizens. And as the powers of technology have increased, so has covert spying on the populace.

Zombie Nukes—Undead Power Plants That Feast on Human Money! —
06 Mar 2013 —
There are a number of utility-owned nuclear power plants in the United States that are offline and not coming back online anytime soon, but also not scheduled to be shut down. Of course, you can't just abandon a dormant nuclear plant, at least not until the decision has been made to properly shut it down for good. Thus, these zombie plants continue to drain the public's pocketbook—usually through electricity rates—sometimes to the tune of $50 million dollars a month—without generating a single watt of electricity!

Joshua Farley on the Political Economy of Ecosystem Services —
07 Mar 2013—

It is, of course, the other way around. For now, as we try to out-clever the system and continue flouting the proper economy-environment relationship—i.e. the laws of nature—we are merely bulldozing the pile of consequences further (and higher) into the future. But that cannot last.
