RIP Ricaro Montalban

Noble — Thu, 01/15/2009 - 04:02

KHAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNN

Yesterday marked the passing of a famous actor, Ricardo Montalban of Fantasy Island, whom Trekkies know and love as Khan. He is most well-known to me (besides being Khan) as being the peddler of Chrysler's phony marketing term, "Corinthian Leather."

It is probably for this reason that Negativland included his sample in their anti-commercial epic, Dispepsi. I'm afraid this is the closest thing I have to a tribute or a memorial to offer from my archives.

Although the so-called ‘moral issues’ were raised, in view of the law of natural selection it was agreed that a nation or world of people who will not use their intelligence are no better than animals who do not have intelligence. Such people are beasts of burden and steaks on the table by choice and consent.
