Quote du jour

If you read in the paper that New Zealand had decided to go nuclear, would you lose a moment’s sleep over it? Personally, I’d be rather heartened. It would be a sign that a pampered and somnolent developed world had woken up and concluded that betting your future on the kindness of strangers is a helluva gamble.

  2. Thanks, in part, to the US Navy, which does have a few nukes of its own!

    Besides...never turn your back on a puffin! Heh.
