@Krandlers The falls depicted @2:17 are the Iguazu Falls on the the Iguazu River located on the border of the Brazil and Argentina. (See 25° 41′ 43″ S, 54° 26′ 12″ W.) They are neither the Victoria Falls (on the Zambezi River at the border of Rhodesia and Zambia) nor the Niagara Falls (on the...

@1979berty I guess Pot was really @1:58--sorry.

In any case, you are right, it isn't Speicher. It is a Marine named Anthony Riddle interviewed by CNN in Iraq and aired on October 26, 2003 at 20:00 ET, sub nom "CNN Presents: Fit To Kill." The Riddle's (edited?) lines became a bit famous: "Like,...

@wittlemunchikin Cash had done this track in 2002 for the album "American IV: The Man Comes Around." The film producers later bought the rights to use it, just like any other sound track. Great work by all involved, of course--not the least being Prologue Films who did the credits. Cash's wo...

When was the 14460 discontinued?

The music . . . if I had one of those knives I'd stab my eardrums out . . .

My theory is that most things Žižek says are only half sincere. He is a true intellectual provocateur. He says things to provoke controversy and fresh thinking. This is what makes him interesting and, frankly, fun. One should never (ever) take him as a template for truth--but he takes great pr...

Great montage. Chaplin's words are no less moving now than they were when he spoke them.

And no less naive. People using these words brought a Bolshevist revolution to Russia and a few years later the world revolution of the common man was play thing of Josef Stalin, the greatest mass murdere...

How is this song a "mix of cultures" including "Russian" culture? How is it culturally Russian? Do tell.

Oh yeah, and can you say Hohenfriedberger? Give it a whirl.

He knows his PLACE? In the big white house with his finger on the button??? Hello?

Cain is an AMERICAN, who trades on his accomplishments rather than the color of his skin. Why is this woman so offended by that that she can't even think straight? It is amazing.

"Medic?" A bit too Hollywood for Oakland. May as well yell "corpsman."

@duramu You are right, of course. I have no problem taking one's time to get words and ideas right. Were it only that people were more careful in choosing their words. I will suggest that Sagan's idiomatic parlance had a dramatic quality that helped make him famous as a media personality. Th...

"[In the Soviet Union,] [f]rom 1 January 1935 to 22 June 1941, 19,840,000 enemies of the people were arrested. Of these, 7 million were shot in prison and a majority of the others died in camp." --Olga Shatunovskaya, Soviet Commission of Party Control.

Worthy of note?

@MrFrostmourne1 Have you read Dmitri Volkogonov yet? Stalin simply perfected the authoritarianism--he didn't create it.

Holy faux valley girl, Batman!

In reality, American girls are not that annoying . . . nor are they that pretty.

I think I'll put the vid on mute and watch it again.

YOUR INFILTRATION IS COMPLETE. NOW YOUR MISSION MAY BEGIN.

@thejoymonster Thank you for this gem! "Sanctimonious cunt" is going to be my new 'phrase of the month.'

Your English has a few mistakes. Most Americans would instantly know you are European “forgive” the mistakes automatically. I can understand your English very easily. That is everything! Keep improving your pronunciation. Pronunciation is more important than grammar for understanding Englis...

Sagan can make total nonsense like the Hill's fantasy sound compelling. Kinda makes you wonder.

"Celebrity astronomer" indeed. He was not so notable as a scientist, but as an influential popular figure and as consequential author he will be remembered.

I still wonder how widely known he would have become without his hugely successful PBS series. By speaking slowly over an amazing Vangel...

@TudorRose85 The music with Nancy's face is O Fortuna from Carmina Burana by Carl Orff.

Is this Hold And Restrain (Olafs Vinyl Version)?

Everyone forgets Korean Air Lines Flight 902, shot down by the Rus in 1978.

Great vid! Please throw on a soundtrack, if you can. Tx.

I don't get the point of your video. The woman just wants you to speako el Englisho, do your job, and stop stealing. If you can't do that, then go home to Mexico.

@EpicLifeMovies Yes, the Hudson.
