And, speaking of “then” I recently stumbled upon some of the imaged of “He-Gassen“, a several hundred year old Japanese scroll depicting a fart battle.

The rest of the images, available here, (it is work safe, provided you don’t have smell-o-vision!) prove that such . . . → Read More: Friday of Flatulence

Vladimir Putin* won the not so coveted Confucius Peace prize this month for his decision to go to war with Chechnya in 1999 where an estimated 25,000 to 50,000 civilians died.
