"With lighter skin they could be more successful."

"Responding to international criticism that its initial donation of $20,000 was insufficient, the Thai government has generously added 50,000 bottles of whitening skin cream to its aid shipment to earthquake-stricken Haiti.

'Thailand is a compassionate nation,' said Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya. 'We noticed in the news that the Haitians are all very dark-skinned. This is surely one of the reasons they are living in poverty. With lighter skin they could be more successful.'"

Because dark skin explains all the world's poverty problems... XP ~MP

What Not To Do, Pt. 2

via NYTimes.com:

"A crude car bomb of propane, gasoline and fireworks was discovered in a smoking Nissan Pathfinder in the heart of Times Square on Saturday evening, prompting the evacuation of thousands of tourists and theatergoers on a warm and busy night. Although the device had apparently started to detonate, there was no explosion, and early on Sunday the authorities were still seeking a suspect and motive."

...the bomb started to detonate... that's the most disturbing part... of course, the mistake here is having a bomb that uses fireworks to set some gas cans on fire, which would subsequently set off some propane canisters... at least, that's what it sounds like from the NY Times article. Thankfully, only the fireworks went off... Excellent plan, bad demolitions guy... you know he got his balls cut off for that cock up...

Seriously, though, I'm glad nothing bad happened... *shivers*~MP
