In the News #2

December 19, 2008

Yes. No mashed words this time. I tend to listen to whatever few readers I may have.

Fascinating Interview in Africa – I wish the BBC was paying me for using their news. I’ll diversify eventually. Anyway, in the meantime, this is a pretty interesting article because of the nature of the interview journo Mike Thomson got. Read it.

Tasmanian Devils Still Dying

And before you call my insensitive because of that headline, I’d like you to know that I’m very sad about the fact that there seems to be no hope for the planet’s Tasmanian Devil population. This despite the fact that Taz (the cartoon character) was never a favorite of mine (and still isn’t).

Deep Throat Passes Away – The Watergate guy. This has nothing to do with porn.

This Is Not Funny At All – Stuff like this scares me off having kids sometimes.

And of course, Mugabe Continues To Be A Complete Douchebag – Robert Mugabe, Zimbabwe’s President Elect (oh, wait, no he’s not) is telling anyone who’ll hear/read that other African leaders are too scared to try and oust him from Zimbabwean government. I’m sorry to say that opposition leader (and Zimbabwean President Elect) Morgan Tsvangirai continues to disappoint in this ongoing battle of words, wits and missing persons.
