Batman silent film from the 1920s

Tuesday, August 19th, 2008

I had no idea Batman’s roots were so deep. The film is long and slow, and thoroughly creepy. The soundtrack is something else. Not too bad for being 80 years old. Enjoy.

From Neatorama  San Francisco contemplates renaming sewage treatment plant after BushWhere else but glorious San Francisco? A group of San Franciscan patriots has proposed a fitting tribute for our outgoing President:

Reagan has his highways. Lincoln has his memorial. Washington has the capital, and a state, too. But President George W. Bush may soon be the sole president to have a memorial named after him that you can contribute to from the bathroom.

 

From the Department of Damned-With-Faint-Praise, a group going by the regal-sounding name of the Presidential Memorial Commission of San Francisco is planning to ask voters here to change the name of a prize-winning water-treatment plant on the shoreline to the George W. Bush Sewage Plant.

The plan - hatched, naturally, in a bar - would place a vote on the November ballot to provide “an appropriate honor for a truly unique president.”
