(I think it doesn't matter that it ain't on 3-D 5.2 Dolby digital at K-Mart - we know what he Meant.)

But I'm with CRC's screed above - a furriner who knows more about the US Constitution than 90% of bored-again Consumers. We lost it. We *don't* have a "culture" except bizness slogans and dissembling. We are *exactly* like the guy with the executioner:

He swings the blade.
Guy: stands there, says "Hah! You Missed!"
Executioner: "wait til you sneeze.."
