good things about philadelphia.
should we stay or should we go?
time magazine presents the story of an 18 year old afghan girl that had her nose and ears cut off for running away from abusive in-laws. this didn’t happen while the taliban was ruling the country but just recently. her story and the stories of others like her beg the question what will happen in the country when the US leaves? are we still useful there and are things still getting better? i don’t know but i know that US presence in afghanistan did nothing to prevent the brutality suffered by the girl on the cover of this week’s issue of the magazine.
stupid people need stupid warnings.
1. Child-size Superman and Batman costumes come with this warning label: "Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly."
2. A clothes iron comes with this caution: "Warning: Never iron clothes on the body." Ouch!
3. The instructions for a medical thermometer advise: "Do not use orally after using rectally."
4. The side of a Slush Puppy cup warns: "This ice may be cold." The only thing dumber than this would be a disclaimer stating: "No puppies were harmed in the making of this product."
5. The box of a 500-piece puzzle reads: "Some assembly required."
6. A Power Puff Girls costume discourages: "You cannot save the world!"
7. A box of PMS relief tablets has this advice: "Warning: Do not use if you have prostate problems."
8. Cans of Easy Cheese contain this instruction: "For best results, remove cap."
9. A warning label on a nighttime sleep-aid reads: "Warning: May cause drowsiness."
10. Cans of self-defense pepper spray caution: "May irritate eyes."
11. Both boys and girls should read the label on the Harry Potter toy broom: "This broom does not actually fly."
