You can tell I’ve been stumbling around again when I run across something like this page about something called Anoretix.

With the Olympics being in China this time around there’s more attention finally being given to China and some of the ways they’re doing things are getting a little more press than usual. It’s long overdue and still not enough.

I see that the headlines are now screaming that we’re headed for “RECORD DEFICIT IN 2009″. What’s annoying about it is that the news story I read leads the reader to believe that it’s entirely because of the sagging economy and the stimulus payments to 130 million households.

I have to say that it is, without doubt, three of the weirdest pictures of a house that I’ve ever seen. There’s no text to explain what’s showing so you have to decide for yourself what’s going on.
