A Truck of Dead Fish
Check out the beginning of this article about Hunan Province’s recent environmental improvement:
Fisherman Mao Kequn had a fabulous time this summer watching [fish] jumping up and down in his pond. “Thanks to the government’s efforts, my fish are no longer dying,” he says.
Mao, who lives at the south bank of Dongting Lake in Hunan Province, could still remember the heartbreaking moment last June. All of his fish died within a couple of weeks due to polluted water from a nearby paper plant. He was so frustrated that he decided to drive a truck of dead fish to the local government and file a complaint.
Oh, how I love Chinese people.

Lance,
I must say… it seems I’ve missed a lot: Talk of dead fish… a 28 year olds avoidance of intimacy… excessively large motherboards… 
It’s been far too long since I’ve visited your site… I believe the last time I saw it, it was a nice shade of red with interesting pictures gracing the top of every page.
Just wanted to say hello, and thanks for the entertaining posts.
Sincerely,
Tess

Hmph… sorry about the laughing face at the end of my last post… it wasn’t in reference to the “avoidance of intimacy” part, just the fat motherboard.
