I knew the World Trade Organization was bad news. From the press release:

The initiative will require Western companies doing business in some parts of Africa to own their workers outright. Schmidt recounted how private stewardship has been successfully applied to transport, power, water, traditional knowledge, and even the human genome. The WTO's "full private stewardry" program will extend these successes to (re)privatize humans themselves.

And:

"This is what free trade's all about," said Schmidt. "It's about the freedom to buy and sell anything--even people."

It's all over the news about the reporter who threw his shoes at W. Now we can all join in the fun! www.sockandawe.com. This is especially therapeutic for those of us who voted for the guy and were severely disappointed, especially in the second term. My personal best so far is 13.

A Protestant man had been stranded on a deserted island for many years. When fishermen from a nearby island finally stumbled upon the island, they discovered three huts. They volunteered to take the man and the other survivors back to civilization.

"Oh, there are no others," the man said.

"Then why are there three huts?" asked one of the fishermen.

The man replied, "Oh, well, I live in this one. That one is my church, and the other is the church I used to go to."

As a new father, I need all the parenting advice I can get. Luckily, people much smarter than I have come up with a comprehensive yet easy-to-use visual guide: http://www.c00lstuff.com/1133/Do_s_and_don_ts_with_babies/.
