Itchy and Scratchy and Marge


Marge wonders why Bart and Lisa are so late from school (because they're watching I&S with Milhouse and Janie, respectively). At the Simpsons residence, Marge watches I&S and takes careful notes.

Marge: What kind of warped human being would find that funny?

Homer: [laughs]

Marge: Mm...

Marge decides to write a letter.

Dear purveyors of senseless violence: I know this may sound silly at first, but I believe that the cartoons you show to our children are influencing their behavior in a negative way. programming. Yours truly, Marge Simpson.


Mr. Meyers sends back his reply...

Meyers: Take a letter, Miss White. Dear valued viewer, thank you for taking an interest in the Itchy and Scratchy program. Enclosed is a personally autographed photo of America's favorite cat and mouse team to add to your collection. In regards to your specific comments about the show, our research shows that one person cannot make a difference, no matter how big a screwball she is, so let me close by saying...

Marge: [reading the letter] And the horse I rode in on? I'll show them what one screwball can do!

Epilogue: Last Day

After some delay, I am finally down to my last couple hours in this place. They have a new place for me to go, but my condition is only a tiny degree removed from being on the street, with its danger and privacy and frustration. A long time ago, in another life, I once felt resentment for those that would not speak out but now I understand why they would not and I can't really blame them because they were obviously smart enough to know that doing so would only lead them to this point I am at now. I certainly couldn't blame the ones with kids to support, with nothing really to lose myself in terms of that kind of responsibility, I don't even really think of the risks, although up to this point, I have never really lost so badly as now, I have never lost so much. I wonder if I will be alive this time next week, or even this time tomorrow. When I would wake each day and wonder if today would be the last, will today be the last. It used to be a question, not so much wondering if it would be the last, but a question of what I would use that day to accomplish. But now, it is just a matter of surviving, because I still expect it to turn around at some point. At some point, one day, it will turn around and start getting better but for now it just keeps getting worse.

U.S. Navy Missile Defense: The Three Ts – Talos, Terrier, and Tartar

U.S. Navy missile defense, yesterday, today, and tomorrow, Part 4

By George Galdorisi - October 23, 2012


TALOS


Talos entered service aboard the missile cruiser Galveston in 1958, and went “operational” in early 1959. The first operational version of Talos rode a beam most of the way to the target, but it homed in on the target semi-actively. As it evolved to its most updated versions, the missile had a speed of 2.5 Mach, a range of 100 nautical miles, and a service ceiling of 80,000 feet. After the Navy’s fighters had attrited whatever bombers and/or missiles they could, the long-range Talos was the next step in the gauntlet.

Talos was the U.S. Navy’s most capable first-generation surface-to-air missile, but it was also by far the largest and it required a large, expensive hull. Knowing the appetite to fund these hulls was not abundant – especially in a Navy that was embarked on building a fleet of large attack aircraft carriers as well as a fleet of nuclear attack and ballistic missile submarines – the Navy pressed forward on Terrier and Tartar development to place surface-to-air missile capability on smaller, more affordable hulls, as a way to add missile rails to the Fleet more quickly. The final Talos variants had a range approaching 200 miles, and during the Vietnam war, Talos ships shot down three MiGs.

Itchy and Scratchy and Marge


Hello, I'm Kent Brockman, and welcome to another edition of `Smartline'. Are cartoons too violent for children? Most people would say, ``No, of course not, what kind of stupid question is that?''


His guests are Marge, Roger Meyers (CEO of I&S, Intl), and Krusty (``Hi, kids!''), and...

Joining us live, via satellite from Vienna, home of Sigmund Freud, the world's greatest psychiatrist, to give us an insight into the human mind, Dr. Marvin Monroe.


After a brief clip of I&S, the debate begins...

Meyers: I did a little research and I discovered a startling thing... There was violence in the past, long before cartoons were invented.

Kent: I see. Fascinating.

Meyers: Yeah, and know something, Karl? The Crusades, for instance. Tremendous violence, many people killed, the darned thing went on for thirty years.

Kent: And this was before cartoons were invented?

Meyers: That's right, Kent.
