My ‘look’ is cleverly designed for (a) comfort and (b) aging. Since I’m five years younger than my wife, it behooves me to look a decade older than my chronology. And that’s fine — I have no interest in trolling for bimbos and so rarely look at myself that I scarcely have any notion of my appearance. Of course, on those rare days when my appearance actually...
People who fell to bear attacks in 2012

Rhino horn thefts in Paris
A rash of rhino-horn thefts continued Tuesday when thieves used stun gas to overpower guards at the Museum of Hunting and Nature in Paris.
I don’t understand. I mean, you can buy Viagra. Sounds like Pfizer is not doing a good job marketing their products in China. Just sell Viagra with a drawing of a Rhino or Tiger on it? There, fixed.
