MSNBC

Last night, in the middle of trying to figure out how to get out of staying at work for so stinking long, I looked up news stories. The most impressive one was:
Curse of the Bureaucrats
Voodoo dolls are all the rage in Chinaƃ‚—especially now that the government has banned them.

And truthfully, I must say my favorite line is:
The Guangdong Provincial Communist Youth League Committee issued a public statement on May 4, the anniversary of China's liberation from imperial rule, calling for a boycott of voodoo dolls and labeling those who buy them "a disgrace to socialism for believing in feudal superstitions."
Now really people...
If you feel like reading the whole article it's:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12958900/site/newsweek/?nav=slatefrom/RSS/

It's a good giggle, and a sigh. I love government.

I suppose I should go and do something useful today. I don't have to be at wrk until 3p. Truthfully, I don't know what to do with myself. I don't have any half finished projects, no housework, I guess I will just have to go to the gym. Ah, the things we do for the sake of not going to work early.

Tah.
