“I spit my last breath at thee”

“To the last, I grapple with three,

   From Hell’s heart, I stab at thee, 

   For hate’s sake, I spit my last breath at thee”

Quote from Star Trek II — Khan was actually quoting from the novel “Moby Dick”.

… although he could have been talking about the greedy, xenophobic little pricks who run the music industry. I think I can relate to Khan here. Maybe I’m as wrong as Khan, however.

I’m thinking that the geniuses who run the legal and marketing departments at PonyCanyon records and AKS Management are the good guys .. somehow. Right? They know what they are doing, right? They are managing the company and bringing in the maximum amount of revenue to shore up their country’s much-needed tax base, right? They recently dealt with their Chinese competitors correctly right?

They are brilliant, and I am wrong — right?

Starlight: The Enterprise was able to warp away right just at the last second.  Khan and I were pissed.

Enjoy this lovely furisode collection featuring popular Japanese actress Emi Takei.  I loved her in the live action Rurouni Kenshin film.  She was great as Kamiya Kaoru  (Trailer here).  I had already fallen in love with the anime “Miss Kaoru”, and I was not disappointed in how Ms. Takei  fleshed out the character.  She was perfect for that role … and she is even more beautiful in these elegant kimonos! Click on an image below to begin the slide show.  As “Uncle George” would say:  “Oh My…”

Starlight: It took me over eight months to encounter these photos of the wonderful Emi Takei.
