Brainwashing Through Confections

You can sure tell that the Beijing Olympics are almost here. This is what I found in my Pad Thai fortune cookie the other night:

Communist Propaganda

You Can Depend On The Trust Of The Collective. Wow, they’re really trying to get at the hearts and minds of Americans. No better way to do it then through our food. Yep, I’m sure that if a Tibetan protester got one of these, he/she would change his mind.

And since you know the Olympics are going to be broadcast In High Definition!… well, that just makes the whole plan all the more obvious.

Latre.

P.S. My blogging rival Steve has posted an exhaustive statistical analysis of my CD collection. I am very happy to help at least a little bit in Steve maintaining his blogging-every-day schedule. He also says yesterday was the 6th month anniversary of our “competition”. That’s a lot of consecutive posts! I still think Steve’s going to win though.

Poignant Search Term Of The Day That Led To This Blog: “phobia of reading books indoors”.

    I think the Borg must now be in the fortune cookie biz. Diabolical!

    I read an article about how the Tibet protest flags are being manufactured by a Chinese company – I thought to myself, this is why they’re ultimately going to win… that, and that inscrutable way they currently own about $2 trillion of our debt.
