In other words, it's link dump time. Enjoy!
Sex god possessed rape accused, court told: First we had elves stealing lingerie, then we had unicorns driving trucks. Now we have ancient Egyptian sex gods raping nubile girls. I can't wait to see what's next.
The Bath School Disaster: The media has a propensity toward hyperbole. Any time there's a school shooting in the double digits, it automatically becomes the worst school massacre in American history. The death toll in this 1927 attack was forty-five people, with more than fifty others wounded (thanks for the reminder, Benoit).
Pratt paints over government art: A politician spends four hours painting over a commissioned mural in his vendetta against vandalism. I don't know about you, but I find that a tad ironic.
Zimbabwe: Open Market for Goblins: There are different sorts of goblins, and the way they speak reflects on what they've been made from.
Human waste to plug extinct Auckland volcano: What do we do with all this poop? I know! Let's stuff a volcano with it and turn it into a park! "Aucklanders need not be concerned that they would be showered in 'biosolids' in the event of an eruption."
Black Lotus Clothing: Simple and elegant tribal fusion costuming. Very similar to my own costuming, actually!
The End of a 1,400-Year-Old Business: "The world's oldest continuously operating family business ended its impressive run last year. Japanese temple builder Kongo Gumi, in operation under the founders' descendants since 578, succumbed to excess debt and an unfavorable business climate in 2006."
A nation's youth all thumbs with PCs: "In Japan, gadget-obsessed 20-year-olds now have mobile phones that can surf between three high-definition PC websites at a time, handle Flash software, and download Word, Excel and PDF files at rapid speed. But the problem is that their corresponding ability with PCs and keyboards has regressed to the point where it matches that of their parents."
Dear Mr. Goldspink: When PFO (please fuck off) letters become high entertainment.
