itegern .. Actually there have been more incidents involving glasses of more or less clean water as publicity stunts.. I remember that there once was some form of international delegation(not sure, it might be the olympic games commité. Either way it was over ten years ago) in Stockholm who got served water straight from the ocean.. We do have clean waters, but it's not defendable to call it drinking water (Sometimes it is, but..), so I was annoyed already when I saw it happen on the news.. and sure enough a few days later the newspapers had checked what the quality of the water really was at the time, and thus ran front page stories about how the visitors got served water "not suitable for human consumption".

I find it interesting that they stuck the sludge on a pedestal in some lame attempt to make it look better. This CEO must have come up through marketing. With any luck, the sludge will melt out the bottom of the cup before Asok has to drink it.

Also, thanks to the new anti-spam measures, I no longer feel the need to read the strip a week behind to avoid said spam. Happiness has found a new home. :)

Of course most of you realize that you do not really get to own the land. You just own the space over the land called real state. That is why the government gets away with taxing you for the land.

No body has actually made the land. Thus no body really owns the land. Whoever is able to defend the land is the owner of the land as long as he/she can defend it. Since government is the one that defends it and most people are not willing to fight for their land (even against government), it follows that none of you own the land, you just rent it from government in form of taxation.
