I know, I know. You’re already sick of my incessant references to facts and figures about the world around us. I’m writing just to talk about another bit o’ news, so if you don’t like this, please stop reading. Now.
I mentioned culture differences earlier. If one felt compelled, I think some interesting comments would arise from other’s experiences in foreign cultures. ‘Frisco counts.
So here’s my confession: I subscribe to the RSS feeds of not only BBC news, but also (that’s my favorite correlative conjunction, just so you know) to the Al Jazeera English news feeds. Often their stories are similar. The other day there was an interesting twist: March 10th is one of two possible birth dates for Mr. Osama bin Laden and Al Jazeera had an article aboot how he would be living if he is alive. It’s great propaganda. I would encourage you to read it here: Al Ja Effing Zeera, beech.
And if that’s too offensive, you can just read about it here.
