Not that I even want those medals I claim to have somehow earned long ago.
I'm not really thinking this through that far ahead.
The past is something I am trying to decode to gain in the future something else completely unrelated and that no person out there possesses. I don't even care about medals. The future that is today, is my preference. Right now. Now, now, now.

A job.

What kind of a job?
CATHERINE
Translation. Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. Interested?
[Catherine smiles at him. Daniel continues to look at her.]
DANIEL
I-I'm gonna go now.

Go where?

"His Stargate."
[Catherine laughs. Daniel turns back to face the others. Kawalski watches with his arms folded.]
DANIEL
Well, so why is the military so interested in 5,000 year old Egyptian tablets?
O'NEIL
My report says 10,000.
[O'Neil, dressed in Class A uniform, stands behind them with a folder in his arm. They all turn around. Kawalski stands at attention.]
KAWALSKI
Afternoon, Colonel.
[O'Neil approaches and hands Kawalski the folder.]
CATHERINE
Um, do I know you?
O'NEIL
I'm Colonel Jack O'Neil from General West's office. I'll be taking over from now on.
DANIEL
(low, to Shore)
This figure 10,000 is ludicrous. I mean, Egyptian culture didn't even exist—
SHORE
Mmm. We know. But the sonic and radio carbon tests are conclusive.
DANIEL
Well, these are cover stones. Was there a tomb underneath?
SHORE
No, no, no. But we found something a lot more interesting.
O'NEIL
Excuse me. This information has become classified.
(to Kawalski)
From now on, no information is to be passed on to non-military personnel without my express permission.
[Kawalski nods, and O'Neil leaves.]

Sparks erupt in VP debate/Close race heightens stakes in Bentsen- Quayle skirmish
JUDY WIESSLER, CLAY ROBISON Staff
THU 10/06/1988 HOUSTON CHRONICLE
OMAHA, Neb. - Democrat Lloyd Bentsen and Republican Dan Quayle sparred in Wednesday night's vice presidential debate over Quayle's qualifications to be president and squared off in a bitter exchange over the memory of the late President John F. Kennedy.
Quayle, a 41-year-old senator from Indiana, used the 90-minute debate for frequent attacks on Democratic presidential nominee Michael Dukakis, while the 67-year-old Bentsen contrasted his longer record of governmental service with that of Quayle.
Stakes for the debate were heightened by the apparently close presidential race between Dukakis and Republican Vice President George Bush, and by polls that indicated voters' uncertainties about Quayle may be detracting from the Republican ticket.
If tragedy should strike the president "we have to step in there without margin for error," Bentsen said.
Quayle said his first step, if he had to assume the presidency, would be to "say a prayer for myself and the country I was about to lead."
The sharpest exchange of the nationally televised face-off, the first and only scheduled for the vice presidential candidates, was sparked when Quayle said he has as much congressional experience as John F. Kennedy did when he ran for president in 1960.
Bentsen quickly objected: "I served with Jack Kennedy. I knew Jack Kennedy. Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine. Senator, you're no Jack Kennedy." Democratic partisans in the audience at the Omaha Civic Auditorium cheered.
"That was really uncalled for," Quayle responded sternly.

The Stand - The Complete & Uncut Edition
Stephen King
(from internet transcript)
Chapter 8
“We’ve got to get Heck to a doctor,” she said finally.
Ed pulled into a service station and checked the map paperclipped to the station wagon’s sun-visor. They were in Hammer Crossing, Kansas. “I don’t know,” he said. “Maybe we can at least find a doctor who’ll give us a referral.” He sighed and ran an aggravated hand through his hair. “Hammer Crossing, Kansas! Jesus! Why’d he have to get sick, enough to need a doctor at some goddam nothing place like this?”
Marsha, who was looking at the map over her father’s shoulder, said: “It says Jesse James robbed the bank here, Daddy. Twice.”
“Fuck Jesse James,” Ed grumped. “Ed!” Trish cried. “Sorry,” he said, not feeling sorry in the least. He drove on.
After six calls, during each of which Ed Norris carefully held his temper with both hands, he finally found a doctor in Polliston who would look at Hector if they could get him there by three. Polliston was off their route, twenty miles west of Hammer Crossing, but now the important thing was Hector. Ed was getting very worried about him. He’d never seen the kid with so little oomph in him.
They were waiting in the outer office of Dr. Brenden Sweeney by two in the afternoon. By then Ed was sneezing, too. Sweeney’s waiting room was full; they didn’t get in to see the doctor until nearly four o’clock. Trish couldn’t rouse Heck to more than a sludgy semiconsciousness, and she felt feverish herself. Only Stan Norris, age nine, still felt good enough to fidget.
During their wait in Sweeney’s office they communicated the sickness which would soon be known across the disintegrating country as Captain Trips to more than twenty-five people, including a matronly woman who just came in to pay her bill before going on to pass the disease to her entire bridge club.
This matronly woman was Mrs. Robert Bradford, Sarah Bradford to the bridge club, Cookie to her husband and close friends. Sarah played well that night, possibly because her partner was Angela Dupray, her best friend. They seemed to enjoy a happy kind of telepathy. They won all three rubbers resoundingly, making a grand slam during the last. For Sarah, the only fly in the ointment was that she seemed to be coming down with a slight cold. It wasn’t fair, arriving so soon on the heels of the last one.
She and Angela went out for a quiet drink in a cocktail bar after the party broke up at ten. Angela was in no hurry to get home. It was David’s turn to have the weekly poker game at their house, and she just wouldn’t be able to sleep with all that noise going on… unless she had a little self-prescribed sedative first, which in her case would be two sloe gin fizzes.
Sarah had a Ward 8 and the two women rehashed the bridge game. In the meantime they managed to infect everyone in the Polliston cocktail bar, including two young men drinking beer nearby. They were on their way to California—just as Larry Underwood and his friend Rudy Schwartz had once gone—to seek their fortunes. A friend of theirs had promised them jobs with a moving company. The next day they headed west, spreading the disease as they went.
Chain letters don’t work. It’s a known fact. The million dollars or so you are promised if you’ll just send one single dollar to the name at the top of the list, add yours to the bottom, and then send the letter on to five friends never arrives. This one, the Captain Trips chain letter, worked very well. The pyramid was indeed being built, not from the bottom up but from the tip down—said tip being a deceased army security guard named Charles Campion. All the chickens were coming home to roost. Only instead of the mailman bringing each participant bale after bale of letters, each containing a single dollar bill, Captain Trips brought bales of bedrooms with a body or two in each one, and trenches, and dead-pits, and finally bodies slung into the oceans on each coast and into quarries and into the foundations of unfinished houses. And in the end, of course, the bodies would rot where they fell.
Sarah Bradford and Angela Dupray walked back to their parked cars together (infecting four or five people they met on the street), then pecked cheeks and went their separate ways. Sarah went home to infect her husband and his five poker buddies and her teenaged daughter, Samantha. Unknown to her parents, Samantha was terribly afraid she had caught a dose of the clap from her boyfriend. As a matter of fact, she had. As a further matter of fact, she had nothing to worry about; next to what her mother had given her, a good working dose of the clap was every bit as serious as a little eczema of the eyebrows.
The next day Samantha would go on to infect everybody in the swimming pool at the Polliston YWCA.
And so on.

Stephen King calling … Justin Cronin
By Maggie Galehouse on June 8, 2010 at 2:46 PM
In the “one of the most amazing things that could ever happen to a writer” department, local author and Rice prof Justin Cronin appeared on Good Morning America today (Tues., June 8) to talk up his new book, The Passage.
Then Stephen King called.
During the interview — while Cronin was on the air — King called in to say that he loved the book and hoped that it would sell a million copies.
Now, King had already weighed in on The Passage, the first book in Cronin’s post-apocalyptic trilogy. On the back of the hardcover, there’s a fat, yummy quote from King saying a lot of great things about the story, including:
Read fifteen pages and you will find yourself captivated; read thirty and you will find yourself taken prisoner and reading late into the night. It has the vividness that only epic works of fantasy and imagination can achieve.
You can’t really ask for more than that.
But on the very day his book was released, Cronin got more: a live endorsement from the man

Homer the Vigilante [ The Simpsons television series episode ]
Homer is invited to be a guest on Smartline. Kent Brockman interviews him.
Kent: Mr. Simpson, how do you respond to the charges that petty vandalism such as graffiti is down eighty percent, while heavy sack-beatings are up a shocking nine hundred percent?
Homer: Aw, people can come up with statistics to prove anything, Kent. Forfty percent of all people know that.
Kent: I see. Well, what do you say to the accusation that your group has been causing more crimes than it's been preventing?
Homer: [amused] Oh, Kent, I'd be lying if I said my men weren't committing crimes.
Kent: [pause] Well, touche'.
-- Effective interview responses, "Homer the Vigilante"
[phone rings]
Kent: Well it looks like we have our first caller...and I mean ever, because this is not a call-in show. Hello, you're on the air.
Man: Hello, Kent. Hello, Homer -- my arch-nemesis.
Homer: Y'ello.
Man: You _do_ realize who this is?
Homer: Uh...Marge?
Man: No, Homer, I'm not your wife. Although, I do enjoy her pearls. As a matter of fact, I'm holding them right now: listen. [plays with them]
Homer: Why you monster. And you have my daughter's saxophone too! [He strangles someone off camera]
Kent: Homer! That's our stage manager.
Homer: Oh...heh, sorry. I'm a little nervous.
Man: You may be interested to know that for my next crime, I'll be pinching the pride and joy of the Springfield Museum -- the world's largest cubic zirconia.
Homer: Listen, Mr. Cat Burglar, I vow to go without sleep and guard the Springfield Museum day and night for as long as it takes from now on. Unless you want to taunt me more by giving me an approximate time... [no answer] [sweetly] We'll be right back.
Kent: I get to say that!
