14 Day Traffic Jam in China could last until Mid-September

Written by megadestructo / August 27, 2010 12:38 pm / 17 Comments

Traffic Jam in ChinaI really feel like I can’t complain about traffic anymore after reading this story. What happens when you combine a new middle-class economy, tons of cars, and lots of new drivers? A 14-day (and counting) traffic jam. I have no idea how anyone can be patient enough to stay there without just abandoning their vehicle.

Rowan Atkinson and John Cleese share a stage and talk about…apiculture.

Written by megadestructo / August 25, 2010 11:34 am / 10 Comments

When two comedy giants get together, hilarity is bound to ensue. Rowan Atkinson (Mr. Bean) is, quite possibly, the worst talk-show host in the history of the world. John Cleese (Monty Python, A Fish Called Wanda, Fawlty Towers) plays the hapless apiarist who has to deal with him…
