4 'Elul 5765/8 September 2005: International Literacy Day

Greetings.

Worthy cause of the day: Another MoveOn.org petition: Don't Blame the Victims, Get to Work.

Political griping:

• “States sue US over energy efficiency of appliances” (governmental laziness)
  
• “FEMA relief services Windows-only” (morally inexcusable HTML coding if I ever heard of it)
  
• “Style-conscious city flags down bald cabbies” (I cannot make this up!)

Today’s weird thing is Game Cock Boxing, which is an interesting attempt to make a really stupid and needlessly brutal sport more humane. Enjoy.
