Utada Hikaru
Has-been in J-Pop, and through her #161 Billboard "debut" (it's actually her 2nd album in America), a never-was in America. Grew up in New York because her father's dream as a producer was to produce a hit Japanese act in America. Looks like he has to keep dreaming.
I'm breezy? WTF?
She failed as "Utada Hikaru" and failed in her "2nd debut" as "Utada". What's daddy gonna do next? Debut her again as "Hikaru"?

Rearranging the deck chairs on the titanic
This is a situation when someone tries to futilly reform the way things are done in a failing system.
The consolidation of domestic agency intelligence under the banner of "Homeland Security" is nothing more than Rearranging the Deck Chairs on the Titanic.

Adult Swim
A block of cartoons on Cartoon Network of which 4 (Family Guy, Futurama, Sealab 2021 and Aqua Teen Hunger Force) are actually adult oriented. The anime shows are junior high school oriented material in Japan and shows that the U.S. still has a small complex about what is acceptable material in cartoons.
I watch adult swim for the hilarious U.S. cartoons, and not for the wapanese pleasing anime which they think is the Holy Grail.
