Weird News

In today's headlines...

Lawyers in Pakistan are ineligible for credit cards and now the bar association is suing. I asked some folks in the industry why, and they guessed it's because lawyers know how to take their debt to court, tie things up, and avoid paying. Hm...

A school in one of the earthquake's worst hit areas has reopened and the new building is supposedly up to earthquake specs (in a month?). As students filed into the courtyard for the opening ceremony, they were met with the sight of a mass grave and stones for 18 students who'd been killed when the building collapsed (over 50 students and teachers died at this school). A local psychologist warned that the daily reminder of the deaths might not be the best thing for the children, still traumatized by the quake and frequent aftershocks.

D'ya think???
