Nicaragua — a country condemned to produce cheap desserts (bananas, coffee, sugar) — keeps giving its customers belly-aches. In vain the invaders seek victory through hunger, by burning huts & crops. Families are forced to flee & wander unprotected in the mountains, leaving behind pillars of smoke & bayoneted animals. The campesinos believe Sandino knows how to lure the rainbow to him; & as it comes it shrinks until he can pick it up with just two fingers. http://www.patriagrande.net/uruguay/eduardo.galeano/memoria.del.fuego/19301231.htm

Cienfuegos has the beard & mane of a biblical prophet, but where a worry-creased face should be, there's only an ear-to-ear grin.

The feat he is most proud of is that time up in the mountains when he fooled a light military plane by painting himself red with iodine & lying still with his arms crossed.

A moderate socialist, Montehus became (1906) an ardent antimilitarist, close to the positions of Gustave Herve & his newspaper "The Social War."

The recital of his songs are often stopped by the anti-semitic reactionaries of Drumont or the police because of their subversive contents, & are the source of many brawls. But when WWI erupts in 1914, Montehus follows Gustave Hervé in a turnabout, applauding "l'union sacré" & its patriotism.

1969 -- US: Badgered & Bewildered? Twin-engine Cessna takes off from an airport outside Madison, flies 35 miles north, & drops three bombs on the Badger Army Ammunition Plant.

An anonymous phone call to the University of Wisconsin student newspaper, "The Daily Cardinal," identifies the bombers as members of (quote) "The Vanguard of the Revolution." (end quote) (aka the "New Years Gang").
The Cessna was stolen by Dwight & Karl Armstrong (an uncle had died in the plant in 1945 in an accidental explosion). Anti-Vietnam War incidents like these are indicative of "Bringing the War Home."

Aside: Auntie Dave & cohort Gus Hellthaler, of the US Student Press Association/College Press Service (USSPA/CPS), are called in to help straighten the paper out in 1972. The Cardinal is still trying to recover from that little visitation.

Clean Slate
It is 1938 in the French West Africa village of Bourkassa & the police force is tired of being a doormat. In this dark comic adaptation of Jim Thompson's 'POP 1280,' the hapless officer decides to take the law into his own hands & rid the town of its human waste.

Moral Collapse
Coup de Torchon
Directed by Bertrand Tavernier, With Phillipe Noiret, Isabelle Huppert
Video: Home Vision Cinema
t first, it is horrible," says Chief of Police Lucien Cordier of Bourkassa, Senegal (played by Philippe Noiret), "but then you start to think about starving kids, little girls sold into slavery, women whose sex is sewn up. God created murder out of pure kindness. Murder's nothing compared to those horrors."

It's this type of reasoning about the absurdity of justice in an unjust world that pervades the disturbing Coup de Torchon, a 1981 French film (now on video) based on Pop. 1280, a story by American noir writer Jim Thompson.

This "little" man is crushed by his superiors, his wife, & his own inadequacies, but he acquires a social conscience that compels him to rid the world of evil — starting with all those who have stepped on him. The director plays on our delight in watching this poor slob get the best of his oppressors, but Tavernier also creates a masterful study in irony, since the man ends up more callous than his enemies & just as impotent as ever.

1999 -- The Equatorium — another Y2K casualty.

A 400-year-old instrument made to chart the position of the sun & moon is believed to be the oldest piece of equipment affected by the millennium bug. When the clock strikes midnight on December 31, 1999, the device known as the Equatorium will stop working. The year 2000 problem is usually thought of as a danger to systems dependent on modern technology. But the underlying fault afflicting both the Equatorium & modern computers is the same - a failure to plan beyond the end of the millennium.

Whoever invented it apparently did not imagine it would still be in use almost four centuries later. They decided to finish the timeline at the year 2000. Museum staff are at a loss as there appears to be no way of altering the device & extending its lifespan.

2007 --

It's the end of the world as we know it It's the end of the world as we know it I feel fine — Rem All things eventually fade & are no more. As impermanent beings ourselves, we know & ungracefully accept this fact. One day, the end will come for our friends, our family, our neighbors, our IRS auditors, & even for ourselves.
