Where Have The Years Gone?

Well, despite nature’s damndest I had yet another birthday on planet earth.

This, in spite of getting a nasty flu and being covered in poison ivy (who knew crawling around in a forest for 3 days would create the possibility of running into some alergen). And to top it off I had two exams today.

Nevertheless, I successfully outsourced my celebration to India. So some guy in Bombay is having the time of his life, for $2.73.

Additionally, Sean Lynch suggested that for a paltry $.10/night I could also outsource my marital duties to India, China or even Singapore.

Michael Blowhard dug up some nice statistical gems that are too good to ruin by reposting them here.

Tyler Cowen found this infonugget: “On average, a working-age German works about 2 hours and 35 minutes per calendar day.”

John Engler at inluminent has the Walmart-joke-of-the-day.

And the economic endgame apparently already happened in North Korea.

Here’s to looking forward to another Aggie-filled year and to sobriety, wherever it may lurk.
