It has been far too long since the last SPOTD, so I bring you this short edition to get me back on track.
Today's phrase:
This will be a short edition. I have been busy on the SPOTD blog and In Rare Form. Be sure to check them out.
This is from Shakespeare:
Actual:
Brevedad es el alma de la agudeza
Phonetic with emphasis on bold syllable:
Bray-vay-dahd ess ell al-mah day lah ah-goo-day-zah
Translation:
Brevity is the soul of wit.
Lamenting your Lambo
This is an interesting piece on the drawbacks of supercar ownership.
Obeying the Law
I really enjoyed this interview from the Tygrrrr Express with Dr. Walter Williams. Dr. Williams is a prominent conservative economist. His views on the role of government and strict adherence to the constitution are very interesing.
Into Africa
President Bush is quite popular in several African countries. The policies that have made him so popular are in opposition to the conservative principles espoused by Dr. Williams above, but I'm not going to fault the Pres for them right now, and neither does Live Aid honcho Bob Geldof.
Link of the Day

I can't believe how much Harrison Ford still looks like young Indiana. I of course am looking forward to the movie and Matt not so much, a little too much "fantasy" for his liking.
What?!? I can see that for Lord of the Rings or Star Wars, but Indiana Jones? As I said to him one day lo these many years "I feel sorry for your kids."
Just kidding. Kind of.
