US begins 5-day terrorism drill.

US begins 5-day terrorism drill. The terrorists themselves aren’t doing nearly enough to keep everyone terrorized, so the government will have a go at it.

In a typical display of cynicism, Chretien leaves Newfoundland hanging.

In a typical display of cynicism, Chretien leaves Newfoundland hanging. He wasn’t interested in discussing much of anything since he came to office, why should he be bothered to do so now? One bright spot though, he said he was leaving in 9 months.

The wonderful world of engrish.

The wonderful world of engrish. Leave it to the Japanese to invent a whole new language loosely based on the one spoken in the US… some of these aren’t really bad english, just strange phrases popping up at inappropriate moments (look in there, you’ll see what I mean).

Interesting product warnings. Do some of these really need to be written out? I would guess so, otherwise corporate America wouldn’t bother printing them.
