In addition to a photo of this alarming and somehow still legal poster, there’s a jolly good lecture about capitalism and communism over at Leninology (via Sophie).

The lecture is given by Richard Wolff, the Professor of Economics at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, so he makes a well reasoned and very self-aware argument.

I share his hope that we can use this time of financial and environmental crisis as an opportunity for a reappraisal and renaissance.

It’s 40 minutes long so make a sandwich and a cup of tea and enjoy the lecture.

Only 4 rabbits, but still that’s 8 meals for standing around in the sun all day looking at the view. And one snared rat when we got home too

I met a chap called Tom Sacchi, a partner at www.unit9.com, at a party last night. He has an embossed fucshia business card which brings out the American Psycho in me.

I was checking out their website this morning and they’ve done some very neat stuff, and have a great artistic style. I suggest you take a look around.
