Pictures from Tony Pierce

Tony Pierce recently posted this

great graphic on his blog. I think that the most interesting thing is

it should appeal to people on throughout most of the political spectrum

(for different reasons, of course):

Vote, you patchouli-reeking hook-smoking bad-poetry-writing long-haried hippy weirdo freak! And hurry up with that venti mocha!

He also posted another photo, this one of another Asian guy who knows

the joys of throwing a hot tub party. Granted, my tub was a little more

“ghetto” than his, but I’ll bet my party rocked a little harder too:

This is a Yahoo News photo. Can anyone tell me what the story behind it was?

  • I think this was a picture of a brothel owner in Thailand (? some south-east asian country?) who recently became fed up with paying bribes to the police and who started going public in the media with the amounts that various high-ranking persons in the law-enforcement hierarchy were demanding of his operation. He basically wanted to operate as a legitimate business. The seniority of some of the alleged bribe demanders caused some consternation.

  • Oh yeah, what makes this actually interesting is that the guy is running for governor of Bankok -- on an anti-corruption platform. I think his name is 'Chuwit'.
