More Musings

Simon Cowell.  Gordon Ramsay.  "Supernanny."

If Americans love Brits bossing them around so much, why exactly did we fight that revolution?

I just saw this on Yahoo!, and it's far too good not to pass along:

At the Arab Shooting Championship on Thursday (by the way, that's a shooting championship held in an Arab country--Kuwait--not an event where people shoot Arabs), Maria Dmitrienko of Kazakhstan won a gold medal.  As Dmitrienko stood on the podium, the Kazakh national anthem played over the arena's public-address system. . . only it wasn't the actual Kazakh anthem--it was the mock anthem from "Borat."

Dmitrienko was gracious about the whole thing, and why shouldn't she be?  She won a gold medal for shooting.  Her time will come.
