[links] Link salad for a Monday
Falcon 1 reaches orbit — Finally! (Thanks to rosefox.)
xkcd on the scale of the universe — Heh heh heh.
A true image from False Kiva — APOD with some serious awesomeness.
Singapore, Portland airports get top marks in survey — Ahem. (Thanks to danjite.)
Tokyo Sexwhale — Some spam names are from real life. Remarkable guy, in truth, if you read his Wikipedia entry.
“Here’s a guy who thought FDR was president during the Great Depression.” — Yeah! What a loser! (Said by a Republican strategist mocking Biden.) Hey, GOP, I know you guys make your own reality, but come on… ETA: Apparently what we have here is a case of dueling moronage. lauriemann explains in comments on my LJ.
Abraham Lincoln on money and banks — Ah, good old Republican values.
Stanley Fish smokes crack, writes about it in the New York Times — “…within a year of the day he leaves office, and no matter who succeeds him, George W. Bush will be a popular public figure, regarded with affection and a little nostalgia even by those who voted against him and thought he was the worst president in our history.”
