Tune in Tomorrow for 3D Fiscal House of Horrors!

Reason magazine and Reason.tv are coming at you in terrifying 3D! The November issue of the magazine, going out to subscribers like so many wraiths as you read, features free 3D glasses and actual 3D graphics that spell out our Fiscal House of Horrors in ways that we hope will finally drive home just how out of control federal spending, debt levels, and public-sector compensation really is.

On Thursday, September 30, Reason.tv debuts three equally scarifying videos in living (or is that dying?) 3D. And a very special health warning message from none other than former senator and recidivist presidential candidate Mike Gravel.

Subscribers to the print edition of Reason magazine will automatically receive the special issue and complimentary Reason.tv 3D glasses. If you're not a subscriber, go here now to get your special issue so you can enjoy it and the videos in their fully horror!

If you're in the DC area, come join the staff of Reason and Reason.tv at our DC HQ for a special viewing party of 3D Fiscal House of Horrors. Space is extremely limited and RSVPs are required.

From Merriam-Webster:

***********************************

wraith
noun \?r?th\

2 : an insubstantial form or semblance : shadow
3
: a barely visible gaseous or vaporous column

*******************************

Sounds like as good description of libertarians and their philosophy as any.

Max? Is that you?

Good job understanding basic sentence structure, Hobie Handjob. "Wraiths" refers to the subject, not the object.

Regardless, that's one frighteningly bad clause.

You are a remarkably stupid man, Dan T.

Being a Class 78 cargo vessel, the Nonix was designed to require a very small flight team, usually just a captain and two or three more individuals depending on their capabilities. The ship primarily was operated and navigated by computer, and often times the crew did little besides tend to minor equipment problems and coordinate freight transfers with the docking planets. The 78's were built for the sole purpose of transporting large amounts of bulk cargo cheaply and quickly, and therefore did not have the kind of defense systems one would find on the more secure XYX series transports. Due to the ship's vulnerabilities, they were generally loaded with merchandise of little worth to pirates and shipjackers. But as Captain Smith had just found out, sometimes the vagabonds simply didn't care.

That was superfluous. Thanks.

Will Count Floyd put in an appearance? Perhaps with a showing of "Tip O'Neill's 3D House of Representatives"?

Off topic: My new blog is a lot less antisocial than Reflections on Playboy.

Ignoring shameless self-plug...

Now!

Me too!

You're absolutely right. That is off topic.
