For today’s post, I thought about drawing your attention to the Whitman County Historical Society Lost Apple Project. Then I got distracted by this essay on my favorite philosopher. Then I saw that Rebeller just published an interview with the great John Milius.
I’ll admit it: I was in a bit of a pickle. What to do? I mean, on the one hand you’ve got heirloom apples once thought extinct. On the other, you’ve got “by far the most profound thinker of the [nineteenth] century.” And on the other other hand, it’s John Freaking Milius, the guy who wrote and directed Red Dawn.
That’s when I discovered this Mike Tyson footage combined with Street Fighter sound effects. And I realized that my work here is done.
