for whom the bell tolls

Well, if I were China and I saw this story I'd change the standards for adoptions too. Seriously, I'd think twice before giving a kid up for adoption if these kinds of stories kept popping up. And these kids are their own flesh and blood, what do you think would happen to an adopted kid? OK, I want to know who's having sex with this crazy people? And why? People, please. Neuter your retards.

The House has passed this security bill. Good for them. The only problem is the implementation of such a measure. More money needs to be spent in training people for the jobs. Companies may feel justified in raising prices for goods that have to spend extra time getting inspected to offset costs. And then people will complain about the price and tax increase, on top of the fact that 'there hasn't been a threat via shipping,' and all that jazz. It's hard to justify increasing taxes to pay for security, because if it works, then you'll never know. It's only when it doesn't work do you know about it.

I really wonder why this is actually news. Or why anyone would snap a picture of it. Yes, they're public figures like actors, but are valued for different reasons. Unless you're Reagan or Schwarzenegger. Still, I don't think Congress is going to pass a height/weight and body fat index requirement to serve. It's not like they're role models or anything. Right? Who cares if they're fat?

So a school is sending letters with kids that say how you're kid is doing along the height/weight and body fat index. Why is that something for a school do? Uhh... because it's pointing out that the parents might be doing something wrong or just not doing anything. Just like academics. I'm not saying that it's right for the school to do something like that, but unfortunately, parents tend expect more of the education system anyway that this only seemed like the next natural step.

I smell a sequel... Scorpions on a Plane.
